i3 is a tiling window manager, completely written from scratch.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
i3 was created because wmii, our favorite window manager at the time, didn't
|
|
|
|
provide some features we wanted (multi-monitor done right, for example), had
|
|
|
|
some bugs, didn't progress since quite some time and wasn't easy to hack at
|
|
|
|
all (source code comments/documentation completely lacking). Still, we think
|
|
|
|
the wmii developers and contributors did a great job. Thank you for inspiring
|
|
|
|
us to create i3.
|

|
|
Please be aware that i3 is primarily targeted at advanced users and developers.

This requires libev, yajl, and dmenu.

i3status and dzen2 are optional, but useful to provide a system status bar.
