Description

This window manager is designed primarily for power users, developers, and anyone engaged in daily computing tasks who desires detailed control over their graphical interface. In fact, a window manager is one of the most frequently utilized software applications in everyday activities, alongside web browsers, email clients, and text editors. Power users and programmers enjoy a wide variety of options among multiple tools for their daily operations, many of which are highly customizable. Awesome aims to fill the gap in these tools by providing an extensible and highly configurable window manager that enhances the overall user experience. By prioritizing flexibility and user preference, Awesome stands out in a competitive landscape of window management solutions.

Description

bspwm is a tiling window manager that models windows as the leaves of a complete binary tree structure. It solely reacts to X events and the messages sent through a dedicated socket designed for communication. The utility bspc is responsible for sending messages to bspwm's socket. Importantly, bspwm does not manage any keyboard or mouse inputs, requiring an external program, such as sxhkd, to convert keyboard and pointer actions into bspc commands. Each monitor displays only the tree associated with the currently focused desktop, meaning that users can only see one desktop's structure at a time. This tree effectively divides a monitor's rectangular area into smaller, rectangular segments that correspond to different windows. Consequently, users can efficiently manage their workspace, promoting a streamlined and organized experience.
