river

river is a dynamic wayland compositor that takes inspiration from dwm and bspwm.

Note: river is currently early in development and not yet ready for the average end user

Design goals

• Simplicity and minimalism, river should not overstep the bounds of a window manger.
• Dynamic window management based on a stack of views and tags like dwm.
• Scriptable configuration and control through a socket and separate binary, riverctl, like bspwm.

Development

Check out the roadmap if you'd like to see what has been done and what is left to do.
