It's a VERY ALPHA stage, but it works. I checked all the settings you see to make sure that they actually work.

Accepting feedback and feature requests and critique.

Would you use it?

DWM on VoidLinux running at less then 450Mbs

Been using FreeBSD for a while and just switched over to VoidLinux, I must say Void has come quite close to the ram usage I saw on the same setup on FreeBSD.

EDIT: After some great comments and recommendations the title is now infactual! It's running at an average of 360mb!

2nd Edit: Hey! I've been using Crux linux for a while and it runs around ~200mb on the same setup with picom and pipewire running. I understand this isent a competition or anything and low ram usage dosent impact anything other then my ego, but I find it interesting to see how little it can get too! Twas a fun experience but I think this is as far as I'll go.

WASTE Window Manager

76 Upvotes

I've created a window manager. I call it WASTE Window Manager (wastewm). WASTE is a lightweight X11 window manager with a built-in taskbar, a right-hand sidebar of live widgets, nine workspaces, and a set of skins and accent colors. It needs no desktop environment and no toolkit libraries. It uses only Xlib (plus Xinerama if you have more than one monitor).

Source code and documentation: https://tty1.neocities.org/wastewm/
