| == Window Managers ==
| |
| | |
| Window managers (WMs) are X clients that provide the border around a window. The window manager controls the appearance of an application and how it is managed: typically the border, titlebar, size, and ability to resize a window are handled by a wm. Many window managers provide other functionality such as places to stick dockapps, menus to configure the WM and other useful things.
| |
| | |
| Window managers generally do not provide extras like desktop icons, which are commonly seen in desktop environments (though it is possible to add icons in a WM with another program).
| |
| | |
| Because of the lack of extras, WMs are much lighter on system resources.
| |

| ===Types===
| |
| | |
| 1. Stacking (aka floating)
| |
| *Provides the traditional desktop metaphor used in commercial operating systems like Windows and OS X. Windows act like pieces of paper on a desk, and can be stacked on top of each other.
| |
| | |
| 2. Tiling
| |
| *These "tile" the windows side-by-side so that none are overlapping. They usually make very extensive use of key-bindings and have less (or no) reliance on the mouse. Tiling window managers may be manual, offer predefined layouts, or both.
| |
| | |
| 3. Dynamic
| |
| *A type that can dynamically switch between tiling or floating window layout.
