Miguru is an automatically tiling window manager for Windows 10 à la Amethyst/xmonad.
See the wiki.
There already are a bunch of really nice tiling window managers for Windows – see Other tiling WMs for Windows – so far I did not settle with any, though. So I'll be rolling my own...
The goal is a basic but hopefully stable window manager that should behave somewhere close to Amethyst/xmonad.
-
Uses native virtual desktops as workspaces, which can't be switched on per-monitor basis, integrate however with:
- Windows' Task View and programs like VirtualSpace
- Settings like
VirtualDesktopAltTabFilterandVirtualDesktopTaskbarFilterinHKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced
-
No binary space partitioning, no moving in specific directions, just the basics of xmonad:
- Divide screen into master and secondary pane
- Cycle through windows forwards/backwards
- Layouts: tall, wide, fullscreen (aka monocle) and floating (i.e. no tiling), and a few others
-
Tested on Win10 Build 19042-19045, Windows 11 is currently not supported
- Particularly the GUIDs for the virtual desktop COM interfaces are missing/untested
