Description

FancyWM is a dynamic tiling window manager for Windows 10/11

☑ Create dynamic tiling layouts with mouse or keyboard
☑ Move window focus with keyboard
☑ Swap windows with keyboard
☑ Resize windows with keyboard
☑ Swap windows with mouse (hold [⇧ Shift] while dragging)
☑ Horizontal panels
☑ Vertical panels
☑ Stack panels (tabbed layouts)
☑ Panel embedding
☑ Jump to virtual desktop ([⇧ Shift] + [⊞ Win], then [1-9])
☑ Move focused window to virtual desktop ([⇧ Shift] + [⊞ Win], then [⇧ Shift] + [1-9])
☑ Floating window mode (via keybindings or rule-based)
☑ Auto-float windows which cannot fit
☑ Customizable keybindings
☑ Support for multiple monitors
☑ Support for virtual desktops
☑ Allows window maximization
☑ Low CPU usage (<1%)
☑ Disable animations for longer battery life
☑ Windows open in focused panel
☑ Remap activation hotkey to [⇧ Shift] + [⊞ Win], [Ctrl] + [⊞ Win] or [Alt] + [⊞ Win]

FancyWM uses [⇧ Shift] + [⊞ Win] as the start of a command sequence (Activation hotkey). To start a command sequence, press and release these keys simultaneously, then follow up by pressing one of the keybindings you have configured in the settings.

FancyWM only manages restored (not minimized, not maximized) top-level application windows, so it doesn’t interfere with popups, and still allows you to use all of your available display area for when you need to focus on a window.
