dwemo

If you're looking for a minimal window manager that focuses on necessity and functionality, look no further than dwemo. This X-based software uses keyboard control for common tasks and allows you to directly launch common applications. Plus, its binary size remains under an impressively small 30kB.

The dwemo story is one that many users can relate to - trying out various minimal window managers in search of one that has the exact functionality they desire. After examining their own history with window managers such as fluxbox, openbox, ion, 9wm, ratpoison, and xmonad, the creator of dwemo realized what they really wanted: a simple, configurable, and powerful window manager that took up as little space as possible.

What's even better about dwemo is that it provides links to educate users about other minimal window managers and to offer alternatives should dwemo not meet their individual needs. In the most recent release, keybindings were removed along with corresponding references, and MWM_HINTS were taken away for testing and compatibility purposes.

Overall, if you're someone who values minimalism, functionality, and productivity, dwemo may just be the window manager you've been searching for.
