River

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

Note: River is currently very early in development and not ready for end users

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

If you'd like to participate in the development of river, please join our matrix channel: #river.

I can often be found in the #sway-devel IRC channel with the nick ifreund on irc.freenode.net as well, or reached by email at ifreund@ifreund.xyz.
