I installed and launched it (komorebi-gui.exe? NOPE, komorebi.exe.. maybe that's right) but it seems like there is some learning curve.. no Welcome screen or post-install onboarding.

It randomly selected and tiled 2 / 50 total windows, and created a big black box for Progress Quest which wasn't there before (which I discovered here on HN last week but haven't started a New Game yet).

Is there a minimal Quickstart guide? I really want to like this but so far it's pretty rough.. I don't want to learn another form of the obscure config language (e.g. tmux) for a tiling window manager.

Edit: Thank you repliers :)



I had a similar experience last time I tried komorebi. The architecture seems smart in theory, with concerns separated between komorebi/komorebic/autohotkey, but in practice it's a lot of fiddling. I also experienced an irritating pixel-border spacing issue.

I've been using Divvy for the past few months and it's suited my needs much better. Instantly intuitive and productive. https://mizage.com/windivvy/


Thanks for the recommendation, I'll give it a shot (even though it is proprietary and definitely not FOSS).


There is both a quickstart guide[1] and a video walking through it step by step[2]. It takes less than 10 minutes of your time.

This seems like it would be helpful for you https://lgug2z.github.io/komorebi/example-configurations.htm...
