# river
|
|
|
|
river is a dynamic wayland compositor that takes inspiration from
|
|
[dwm](https://dwm.suckless.org) and [bspwm](https://github.com/baskerville/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.
|
|
|
|
