are you planning on supporting redox-os?

Redox-OS is the operating system written in rustlang. They could really use a simple tiling window manager!

Also, how would you compare this to i3wm?

I'll start with the last question: wtftw is more akin to xmonad than it is to i3wm.

I followed the redox os dev blog, but I haven't taken a detailed look at the code so far. I would love to support redox-os. How long it would take and how difficult it would be depends on the graphics and event system.

Oh, I just realized: it would be possible, but only in its default configuration. For loading the config, it would need cargo and rustc at hand.

Possible out of the box? That's great! Thanks for the info, feel free to cloae

Not out of the box. It would still need a new trait implementation. At the moment there is only the x.org implementation.

The last comment was just to note that at the moment it wouldn't be possible to configure wtftw, as the config needs a compiler.

Closing for now
