WM recommendation (I know Python but not enough to take much priority)

posted 1 year ago

I want the easiest to configure/theme wm and one that comes with sane defaults. Also I currently use cinnamon, and I’m not sure how to escape from that(everything in it is just so nice) but I want the speed of a wm

One thing I just remembered that you might struggle with is applying patches which is how you install “extensions” in most suckless software including DWM. Do you know how to use Git or some other version control system? If you don’t know Git but have used Subversion or Perforce or something then it should be fairly easy to pick up but if you haven’t used version control ever then resolving conflicts between patches might be a little tricky.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
