Description

Keyboard-driven X11 window layouts can be controlled with vi-like operators, motions, and modes.

It is useful for power users who want a lightweight tiling window manager shaped around modal keyboard control. Switching window managers changes session behavior, shortcuts, startup configuration, and application placement, so testing in a spare session is wise.
