bspwm 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.
