PeachWM

peachwm

peachwm is a fork of swindle that is designed to be similar to MangoWC, while remaining lightweight.

Features

  • Lua configuration
  • Dwindle, Master, Monocle, and Floating layouts
  • XWayland support
  • Lightweight

Dependencies

  • libinput
  • wayland
  • wlroots-0.20 (compiled with the libinput backend)
  • xkbcommon
  • wayland-protocols (compile-time only)
  • pkg-config (compile-time only)
  • a C compiler (clang recommended)

Install these (and their -devel versions if your distro has separate development packages) and run make followed by doas/sudo make install, if you wish to install it (installs to /usr/local/bin/ by default).

Configuration

Read example/config.lua. It should give you a basic idea of how configuring peachwm works.

Its good to move/copy /etc/peachwm/config.lua to $HOME/.config/peachwm/, but will start without this step if you choose not to.

Installation

make release -j$(nproc)
sudo make install
mkdir -p $HOME/.config/peachwm/
cp /etc/peachwm/config.lua $HOME/.config/peachwm/config.lua

Roadmap

  • No longer require exiting peachwm upon input config changes
  • Allow status bar requests
  • Add smartgaps
  • Implement scratchpad workspaces
  • Add animations via scenefx
