river is a tiling window manager for Wayland. Most of the big tiling wms are for X, and to my knowledge not many are planning Wayland versions. It makes sense, as for a tiling wm you'd just be rewriting most of the code. So instead you get these roughly parallel projects that start at attempts to basically port wms to Wayland: Sway for i3, river for bspwm, and dwl for dwm.
Sway is by far the most popular, but river and dwl are both functional alternatives, even if the feature sets are a little barebones. Personally I'm waiting for a Wayland version of herbstluftwm, it's my favorite.
Someone showing off their uniquely styled desktop. Usually showing multiple panes, one of which is an empty desktop and some apps in another to show the background and window styles. If you are used to things close to the Gnome/KDE/Cinnamon default looks and are confused, they did a good job!
River is a tiling window manager FYI.
The "dotfiles" contain all the relevant config. Most of it is in ~/.config usually
A modular desktop. You can choose your type of window management, compositor, system bar, app panel, layout generator, shortcuts as well as theming.
Love the aesthetic and wallpaper! Everforest is such a great colour scheme.
Template OS 2 has been released
What is Template OS? Also nice nickname
I have been on the hunt for Awesome WM wayland alternative and this actually looks pretty close to my current setup.
Give it a try! river is pretty easy to use and has relatively good documentation, in fact, the config file is/can be a shell script.
Previously I thought the everforest rices I've seen were just good. But now I guess I just like this theme (and other green themes too) so much that I like all the rices which use it. 1/10
What kind of browser is that?
It's just librewolf, check the dotfiles for the config
Can you help a little? 🤔 I can't find the config.
Hey! If you mean the visual setttings for librewolf, i just uploaded the userChrome.css in the dotfiles. I use it both on firefox and librewolf
Thank you so much!
Love the wallpaper!
Orthodox Christian. Luke Smith confirmed
Haha i get the reference, btw i'm not orthodox, but i deeply appreciate the teachings of the Orthodox priests, specially Father Spyridon and Bishop Mar Mari Emmanuel
Why the low resolution image though? Or do you really have 1366p screens and like 5px high fonts?
WM looks sexy btw
My laptop resolution is 1366x768p and I use small font size, I stacked these 3 images on top of each other using gimp
