fwm

Wayland compositor where windows are physics-driven objects

Desktopfree

fwm is a Wayland compositor for Linux where windows behave as physical objects with mass, momentum, and gravity, simulated with a real rigid-body physics engine. Windows can be thrown, bounce, and stack, alongside a more conventional tiling mode. It's aimed at Linux desktop customization enthusiasts looking for a distinctive, physics-driven window manager rather than a standard tiling or floating one.
