River
River is a wayland server developed by Isaac Freund↗ and hosted on codeber↗. I was "captured" mid 2020 by the river project while writing my own wlroots↗ based wayland server. That seems to have worked out quite well for me 🐈⬛
Starting with version 0.4.0, river can be used with external window managers. Tarazed is the window manager I am working on and using every day.
I used to maintian a set up guide for river, however I deprecated that starting with version 0.4.0, since one no longer sets up river but rather sets up a window manager.
river-classic utilities
Before river split into the the version allowing external window managers and the version keeping the classic behaviour↗, I've written a few utility programs that should continue to work on river-classic. Please be aware that I do not maintain these anymore, however they should be in perfect working order.
riverguile↗ allows you to create window layouts and configure river using guile scheme. Unfortunately it is incompatible guile releases greater than 3.0.8.
river-bnf↗ allows to switch back'n'forth between tags. It is a drop-in replacement for the tag switching command; Tries to focus a set of tags, but if they are already focused, instead focus the peviously used set of tags.
river-tag-overlay↗ is a simple pop-up that appears when you switch tags and then disappears again after some time. It is intended for those who don't use a status bar.
stacktile↗ is a layout generator. It arranges windows in sub-layouts which in turn are arranged in a meta-layout. It got its name from one of the possible sub-layouts: arranging windows like a stack of cards.
