+https://github.com/YaLTeR/niri
+
+Windows are arranged in columns on an infinite strip going to the right. Opening 
+a new window never causes existing windows to resize.
+
+Every monitor has its own separate window strip. Windows can never "overflow" 
+onto an adjacent monitor.
+
+Workspaces are dynamic and arranged vertically. Every monitor has an independent 
+set of workspaces, and there's always one empty workspace present all the way 
+down.
+
+The workspace arrangement is preserved across disconnecting and connecting 
+monitors where it makes sense. When a monitor disconnects, its workspaces will 
+move to another monitor, but upon reconnection they will move back to the 
+original monitor.
+
+heavily inspired by PaperWM which implements scrollable tiling on top of GNOME 
+Shell.
