• Show HN: A tiling window manager like i3wm written in C#

  What is the license? I am author of Stack WM [1]. Also C#, but all the configuration and layouts are defined in WPF XAML and are generally static (e.g. Like PowerToys, but much more flexible due to WPF containers and data binding + you can make WPF-based widgets). Curious about the license for I am interested in having a common library for window manipulation. I am using VirtualDesktop [2] to handle Windows... - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago

• KDE: A Nice Tiling Environment and a Surprisingly DE

  Disclaimer: I am the author.

• What purchase has improved your quality of life as a web dev?

  This next one isn't necessarily a purchase - but just knowing how to use your computer well is a big deal. Most programmers/computer users I've worked with are constantly fumbling around and moving windows and closing and opening things over and over and well: they appear very foolish and expensive for no reason.
