Use i3wm with GNOME Session integration.

bspwm-gnome

An i3-gnome fork for bspwm

Allows you to use bspwm with GNOME 3 Session infrastructure.

Requirements

• bspwm
• GNOME (3.36.x)
• GDM (optional, but useful)
• GNOME Flashback (Optional)

Installation (make)

Using make:

• git clone [e-mail]:Chris-1101/bspwm-gnome.git.
• cd bspwm-gnome
• sudo make install

Installation (aurutils)

If you're on Arch Linux and using aurutils, you can use the PKBUILD file to build bspwm-gnome to your local pacman repo. It's a bit of a manual fiddle as I haven't bothered properly submitting this to the AUR, but it gets the job done avoiding foreign packages:

• git clone [e-mail]:Chris-1101/bspwm-gnome.git
• cd bspwm-gnome/makepkg
• makepkg -s
• mv bspwm-gnome-*.pkg.tar.zst /var/cache/pacman/REPO_NAME/
• repo-add n /var/cache/pacman/REPO_NAME/REPO_NAME.db.tar /var/cache/pacman/REPO_NAME/bspwm-gnome-VERSION.pkg.tar.zst
• sudo pacman -Syu
• sudo pacman -S bspwm-gnome
