• Implementation of the Wayland Protocol for Common Lisp

  > Seriously, lisp? Sure, why not? This is a Wayland client, not the server (aka, compositor). But there's little technical reason not to make the compositor in Lisp either, other than the time commitment. If you want Rust clients and compositors, they do exist. If you don't know how to find them, here's one that turned up on Google: http://way-cooler.org/. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Are there any tiling window managers for wayland written and configurable in Rust?

  Http://way-cooler.org/ Is written in Rust, but configuration is in Lua. Source: over 2 years ago

• Wayland?

  There is way-cooler, though I don't know which state the project is in, or how compatible it is with awesome. Source: over 2 years ago

• Alternative b/c wayland

  There is a drop-in replacement in development called Way Cooler, but I think it's in pretty early stages of development and I haven't tried it myself. Source: over 2 years ago

• Are there any ongoing efforts of making a desktop environment (similar to KDE or Gnome) in Rust?

  Http://way-cooler.org/ (though it does use wlroots which is written in C). Source: about 3 years ago

• [Media] shrs: a shell that is configurable and extensible in rust

  Hey everyone 👋 ! I'm currently working on a rust library for building and configuring your own shell! It's inspired by projects like xmonad and penrose where the configuration of the program is done in code. This means that for example, instead of using Bash's arcane syntax for configuring the prompt, it can be configured instead using a rust builder pattern! The project itself is still at a very young stage, so... Source: about 1 year ago

• What LaTeX setup do you use?

  There are a few other things I could mention, but there are more like side issues, and not relevant to my actual LaTeX setup. First and foremost—and thus perhaps noteworthy after all—is bibliography management with arxiv-citation (see here for more words). This is integrated very well with the XMonad window manager, which makes it even more of a joy to use. Source: about 1 year ago

• How to map arrows keys to CapsLock+(h,i,j,k) shortcuts in i3

  Another way to do it (and works on Linux and other platforms) is with XMonad, defining Caps Lock as a layer key. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Can ISTP like abstract things and theories?

  I tried it once, it was alright. https://xmonad.org/ But I prefer to build my own. Source: almost 2 years ago

• What exactly is a tiling window manager?

  Here is another tiling wm with screenshots: Https://xmonad.org/. Source: almost 2 years ago
