    It’s a piece of software which automatically arranges open windows on your desktop according to different algorithms and layouts, and allows you to switch focus them and move them around in the layout by using keyboard shortcuts. One you get in the flow, you very rarely have to use the mouse to move windows around, maximize them, minimize them, resize them etc.

    If you’ve ever seen a post on !unixporn@lemmy.ml or similar places, the vast majority of them are using tiling window managers to get that look of clean organized windows on the desktop!
