In plain words

This is a tiling window manager built in C# that automatically organizes open windows into non-overlapping tiles on the screen. It functions similarly to i3wm, a popular Linux window manager. The software is designed for developers and power users who prefer keyboard-driven window management over traditional mouse-based interfaces. Being written in C#, it offers a modern alternative to traditional tiling managers while maintaining core tiling functionality.

    A Tiling Window Manager for Windows, Written in Janet2025 · agent-kilo.github.io · ▲297

    Hi HN! I read[1] about Janet[2] some time ago, then immediately got impressed by the enthusiasm of its community, and by the language itself, so I started playing with it.

  • Hi HN community, I’m Zach, founder and CEO of Warp, and am excited to show you Warp, a fast Rust-based terminal that’s easy to use and built for teams. As of today, Warp is in public beta and any Mac user can download it. It works with bash, zsh, and fish. The terminal’s teletype-like interface has made it hard for the CLI to thrive. After 20 years of programming, I still find it hard to copy a command’s output; I always forget how to use `tar`; and I always have to relearn how to move my cursor. To fix fundamental accessibility issues, I believe we need to start innovating on the terminal,…
