  • Dynamic tiling support: Supports both automatic tiling and floating mode with multiple layouts.
  • Socket-based IPC: Allows controlling the compositor at runtime via UNIX socket.
  • Global shortcuts: Permits setting global keybinds for any application (for apps such as OBS Studio).
  • Window/Workspace Rules: Set special behaviors for certain windows and workspaces.
