This tiling feature looks just like i3 or Sway.. pretty sure it is using it under the hood. Not sure why they changed the default shortcuts though, nor why they want to rename everything under the Pop OS brand.. rather than just give credit to the real contributors.
- fish45 5y agohttps://github.com/pop-os/shell https://github.com/pop-os/shell You're wrong
- encryptluks2 5y agoSo a copycat implemented in JavaScript.
- vimacs2 5y agoYou sound like somebody who's sampled a grand total of 1 tiling wm and now thinks they know the field. You do not. By your reasoning, i3 is a copycat of ION or wmii and shouldn't have even bothered. There is plenty of room in the market for more tiling wm's. Yes, you can technically run i3 in conjunction with Gnome but then you are essentially losing all the QoL and floating features of Mutter including the expose view which I use heavily.
- nitinreddy88 5y agoIts neither i3 nor Sway. Its their own implementation on top of GNOME. i3, sway are too complicated for first time users and requires lot of configuration and tweaks. Personally I found Pop Shell is the best thing that can get anyone started with simple toggle on/off, customisation of shortcuts and available out of the box. https://github.com/pop-os/shell https://github.com/pop-os/shell

- d_tr 5y agoIt's written in TypeScript...
- hakube 5y agoIt's using GNOME extensions. GNOME has it's own window manager called Mutter. You should Google stuff first before leaving comments like this
- nsonha 5y agoDon't all tilling VMs look alike (they have no look)? This is much more mouse friendly than i3 default.
- anaganisk 5y agoMay be you should check your case before making accusations? You can you be so sure yet so wrong.
