I did the same thing on Windows, and when I recently moved to linux, I upped my game with Hyprland workspaces:
- if the window doesn't exist, open it (*)
- if the window exists, change focus to it (*)
- (*): on it own workspace, which allows me to run windows in full screen mode, without a title bar wasting space!
The workspaces are configured by a set of rules (ex: I have mozilla|firefox|edge => go to workspace #2 for browsers)
Hyprland is both a tiling and a normal window manager, so you can make a window either. I'm running one terminal in quake mode, with what's called a special workspace
I added a few dedicated keys:
- F2: send me to workspace #2
- Win+F2: reassign the window to workspace #2, say if I want to have a text editor to take notes while reading a page
- Win+Shift+Arrows: resize the tile, because I want a lot of space for the browser and not so much for the editor
- Win+J: toggle the tile, because I want the text editor at the bottom (or top) of the screen, not on the left (or the right)
