Caution
I don't want to support this project anymore.
This project helped me learn a lot about X11 and low-level window management, but maintaining an event-driven, global-state-heavy codebase in C is not something I want to continue doing.
There will be no further development or support.
This is a simple window manager that continues and develops the idea of catwm for learning purposes.
Note
My Reddit account was unfairly suspended :(
I would like to continue sharing my projects and updates, but the doors to the largest social network with real people and targeted audience are closed to me...
