Tiling window manager extension for GNOME Shell with tree-based layouts.

Pluginfree
Forge preview

Forge is a free, open-source GNOME Shell extension that adds tree-based tiling window management, similar to i3-wm and sway-wm, with vim-like keybindings, drag-and-drop tiling and floating window support, working on GNOME 45 through 50.4 under X11 and Wayland. It's aimed at GNOME desktop users who want an i3-style tiling workflow without switching to a separate tiling window manager.
