ewm

A tiling window manager for X, forked from dwm and configured in Lua.

ewm desktop

Install

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/almqv/ewm/main/install.sh | sh

Or with Nix: nix profile install github:almqv/ewm, or on NixOS import nixosModules.default and set services.xserver.windowManager.ewm.enable = true.

Then pick "ewm" in your display manager, or put exec ewm in ~/.xinitrc. To update, run the same command again: a running ewm restarts in place, keeping your windows.

Configure

Edit ~/.config/ewm/config.lua (created on first start from defaults/config.lua). It reloads on save. Plugins go in ~/.config/ewm/plugins/, see examples/plugins. Reference: man ewm.
