Looks like a side monitor will work wonders for you.
I have a setup with 3 monitors:
My main 4k monitor is used for coding only. I can have 5 open buffers, side by side, with close to 120 lines being displayed in each one of them.
I have a side monitor open with a terminal which shows me the logs of the running application, plus I can easily type any additional command there.
On the other monitor I have the browser open, usually with the documentation or stack overflow tab.
When I'm doing web development I have one monitor for the web app and another one for devtools.
It's amazing. No more fighting with screen space. I highly recommend it.
- adkadskhj 6y agoIt's funny, i have three monitors and i still do what the GP mentioned. My side monitor is almost entirely a bunch of large-designed (aka big gutters/etc) GUI focused applications. Slack, etc. And i arrange the "peek outs" (as GP called them) by what makes sense to see about that window all the time. It works out really, really well and i'm super interested in finding a way to make that work with i3.
