Description: Project description coming soon.
Outcome: Prove that a better window manager can increase productivity.

Project Scope

  • Stacking: The ability to drag a window onto another window and having them merge into one window with tabs to allow switching between them.
  • Snapping: The ability for a window to recognise that another window is adjacent when being dragged or resized and being able to automatically snap to it.
  • Assisted Tiling: Please ask Mohannad!!
