awesome is a highly configurable, next generation framework window manager for X. It is very fast, extensible and licensed under the GNU GPLv2 license.
Enabling
To enable awesomeWM set services.xserver.windowManager.awesome.enable to true. For example:
❄︎ /etc/nixos/configuration.nix
{ config, pkgs, ... }:
...
services.displayManager = {
sddm.enable = true;
defaultSession = "none+awesome";
};
services.xserver = {
enable = true;
windowManager.awesome = {
enable = true;
luaModules = with pkgs.luaPackages; [
# add any lua packages required by your configuration here
luarocks # is the package manager for Lua modules
luadbi-mysql # Database abstraction layer
];
};
};
...
}
Similar configuration using Home Manager.

Tip:
Awesome provides a default config file rc.lua which is generated at
/run/current-system/sw/etc/xdg/awesome/rc.lua. Copy the file to ~/.config/awesome/ and make changes.
