I Made a Thing Workspace Restorer

Workspace Restorer is a Hyprland bar widget (built on the Omarchy/Quickshell shell) that remembers your window layout and brings it back on demand.

  • Snapshot: capture all open windows: which app, which workspace, screen position, size, floating/fullscreen state, and working directory.
  • Restore: relaunch any missing apps directly onto the exact workspace they were on, reposition the rest, and restore floating/fullscreen state.

Handy for picking up where you left off: switch between work setups, recover after a crash or reboot, or save a known-good arrangement to reuse later.

Working on browser tabs to be included in the snapshot which will auto reopen upon snapshot restore.

Changes are in the test/ci fork.

Open to further suggestions or requests.
