Building

See the Wiki to see build instructions.

Known issues

• RandR sometimes bugs at launch and starts spamming events, which will make the WM sluggish. Has never happened to me on a real machine though, only in a nested X11 session. (fix: restart X)
• Picom's shadow and effects do not update for cheap animations while animating
• Non-cheap animations are choppy (duh!)
• The config is still pretty simple, although riceable!
• Popups sometimes are created pretty small
