txmonad is a toy xmonad, which is a wonderful tiling window manager written in Haskell. txmond simulates a part of xmonad major feature in the cli mode. The purpose of starting this project is that xmonad is a wonderful tiling window manager, as well as a famous Haskell product level code tutorial, but xmonad is tightly coupling with X11, which makes it harder for Haskell beginners from different platform/system play around.
Here, txmonad imitates xmond architecture and type design to offer a playground for Haskell beginners. So you can play, change and run the code to see the response swiftly.
We use stack to build the project After install stack, simplely run under the project folder:
stack build
stack exec txmonad-exe

- Architecture design for layout.
- Functional data stucture design for worspaces.
- Type-level programming and type design.
- Product-level code design
- txmonad is NOT a window manager.
- txmonad doesn't dependent on X11.
- txmonad simplifies event and message handling process for operations. (Maybe over-simplied!)
- user configurable config and custom layout algorithm.
- quick-check support
- A tutoral for haskell beginners
