I tried all kinds of different solutions, virtual desktop extensions, obscure GUI window managers, you name it. Overtime I realized I wanted something that prioritizes one window at a time, is keyboard driven with has minimal if no GUI elements. I figured this part out, but knew something was missing. I…
