Newm is a wayland compositor in the style of paperwm. It’s designed to be more touchpad centric and better for laptop. The original github is unmaintained but there is a fork here
It’s really worth a try. My dotfiles are not public yet, but I would be more than happy to help you with configuration directly in comments here. Feel free to ask or join the newm-atha discord
I’m happy to see that there are more alternatives to sway and hypland, the more options the better
Yea, I’m happy about it too. I really want to see more wayland TWMs, perhaps even ports of popular x.org TWMs like DWL and Waymonad (waymonad is beta iirc). Another priority is better EGLStreams support for the novideo users.
cool looking!
I just learned about it the other day and as you mentioned the original is no longer maintained. It looks really nice.
The fork is actively maintained and it is fully usable
