# EWM
My Window Manager designed specifically for my workflow on an ultrawide monitor.
-Beware that some things are currently hard-coded for my monitor size.
## Why
-Tiling only/by default is terrilbe on ultrawide monitors but floating
-only window managers are annoying for other reasons. I don't want to
-have and switch between floating and tiling modes. When only focusing
-on one window, keep it centered with a sane width but allow me to tile
-windows when needed.
+I find that tiling window managers are terrible on ultrawide monitors
+but most floating window managers are primarly designed to be operated
+using a mouse. All I want is a floating window manager so that if I
+need to drag a window somewher I can do so without having first make
+said window float. When I only need to look at one window (which is
+most of the time) I want to be able to just center and resize to what
+I consider to be the optimal dimensions, in addition, when I need to
+view multiple windows it needs to be able to automate the task of
+tiling windows.
-I rather write a WM than trying to bend an existing one to my will
-using some made up configuration language.
+Writing a WM that does exactly this is simpler than trying to hack on
+an existing one using some made up configuration language.
## Features
