Description
river is a dynamic tiling wayland compositor that takes inspiration from dwm and bspwm.
Design goals
- Simplicity and minimalism, river should not overstep the bounds of a window manager.
- Window management based on a stack of views and tags.
- Dynamic layouts generated by external, user-written executables. (A default
rivertile
layout generator is provided.) - Scriptable configuration and control through a custom wayland protocol and
separate
riverctl
binary implementing it.
Installation Instructions
dnf copr enable alebastr/river
dnf install river
