juicebox's Introduction

Juicebox

Juicebox is a tiled window manager written in Zig with no dependencies. Its implementation with the X protocol is written from scratch, and instead provides handy features to make it easier for the developer to work with, while still remaining low level.

Features

  • Multiple workspaces
  • Configuration by modifying source code
    • Optionally provide a config file that will be parsed during compilation
    • Use -Dconfig_path=<file_path> to enable this functionality
  • No dependencies, just a simple binary
  • Small (code size, binary size, resource cost)

Future goals

  • Provide an async event loop for X11
    • Currently, we're using a simple blocking event loop to handle events, replies, errors from X11. However, Zig provides great primitives (async, suspend, etc) to create a custom event loop that will allow us to make the library itself a lot more efficient.
  • General support for multiple screens
    • Also add support for Xinerama
  • Provide a translation layer to connect to/with different bars such as Lemonbar. (Perhaps a bar of its own).
