I really like DWM: https://git.suckless.org/dwm/ https://git.suckless.org/dwm/ If you have a Linux machine, you can compile and install manually by just following the instructions on the README. Then you can customize the window manager by copying and pasting the patches into your version and recompiling. That forces you to learn how to build and extend your own window manager in pure C. And it isn’t hard at all, even to a beginner. That inspired the creation of many tiling window managers, because people understood the code and decided to build their own, like i3 or xmonad. The project also features other easy to read C apps, like ST terminal and the surf web browser.
