sxwm
sxwm is a simple tiling window manager designed for X11. sxwm is not a fork of dwm or any other window manager. The goal is to make a clean and simple WM which inherits the simple design of the next best WM, dwm, while still keeping it maximally usable.
There are a lot more features than dwm, yet the codebase is not as heavy; the source is more readable and still competitive in terms of LOC.
I have decided to implement a lot of EWMH and ICCCM support as it allows me to interact with a wider range of programs with ease; doing so is not necessary, just prevents breakage.
The WM does not come with a status bar, unlike dwm.
