Pretty cool! Nice that each monitor has its own strip and its own set of workspaces.

Looks nice. It has a very good “wooow” effect

Interesting to see another wayland tiling compositor; nice work! However I'm not sure if I find this approach better for me than standard tiling WMs. Is there a selling point to this approach?

For the PaperWM fans, this is a dedicated WM based on the same idea

@ traffic road This looks like an interesting project! A scrollable-tiling Wayland compositor could offer a fresh approach to managing windows in a more dynamic way.
