Donovan Glover 5f056f9f2e bspwm: Use left/up/right/down desktops This was an experiment to see if I could make switching between desktops easier. Instead of thinking about desktops in terms of their contents or numbers, we can think about them in terms of gestures used to reveal them. The main advantage to this setup is that you can access any of the other desktops with one keystroke. This is in contrast to having to press super+tab twice. The other advantage is that the desktops are always at a predictable location. One swipe to the right will always get you the desktop on the right, whereas two super+tabs can land on any desktop.	2022-10-23 21:00:54 -04:00

This was an experiment to see if I could make switching between desktops
easier. Instead of thinking about desktops in terms of their contents or
numbers, we can think about them in terms of gestures used to reveal
them.

The main advantage to this setup is that you can access any of the other
desktops with one keystroke. This is in contrast to having to press
super+tab twice. The other advantage is that the desktops are always at
a predictable location. One swipe to the right will always get you the
desktop on the right, whereas two super+tabs can land on any desktop.

bspwm

bspwm is a tiling window manager for X11.

Use Cases

bspwm can be used to:

Automatically tile all kinds of windows, maximizing screen estate
Have complete control of your window manager through simple shell commands
Minimize resource usage; bspwm works best without a desktop environment

You should not use bspwm if:

You are using a desktop environment
You just want to open multiple shells (use kitty or tmux for this instead)
