Jwno is a highly customizable tiling window manager for Windows 10/11, built with Janet[1] and ❤️. It brings to your desktop magical parentheses power, which, I assure you, is not suspicious at all, and totally controllable.
↫ Jwno documentation[2]
Yes, it’s a Lisp system, so open your bag of spare parentheses and start configuring and customising it, because you’re going to need it if you want to
use Jwno to its fullest.
In general, Jwno works as a keyboard driventiling window manager[3]. When a
new window shows up, it tries to transform the window so it fits in the
layout you defined. You can then use customized key bindings to modify the layout or manipulate your windows, rather than drag things around using the mouse. But, since a powerful generic scripting engine[1] is built-in, you can literally do anything with it.
↫ Jwno documentation[4]
It’s incredibly lightweight, comes as a single executable, integrates perfectly
with Windows’ native virtual desktop and window management features, has support for REPL[5], and much more.
