Kahakai is a customizable window manager based on Waimea, designed to be scriptable and language-agnostic.
Kahakai is a fork of the Waimea window manager that aims to create a scriptable window manager that is language agnostic. The developers wanted to maintain the original features of Waimea while adding new and improved ones. It is pronounced "cah-ha-ki".
What does "language agnostic" mean? This means that the scripts that control actions within the window manager are not tied to a specific programming language. You can write scripts in any language that SWIG supports. They have plans to initially support Python and plan on adding support for Ruby and Perl shortly thereafter.
Overall, Kahakai is a solid choice for those looking for a customizable and scriptable window manager. If you are familiar with scripting, you can create your own custom actions to control your windows. This tool is ideal for users who want to personalize their workspace and streamline their workflow.
