1 [DWM](https://dwm.suckless.org/) is a very minimal windowmanager. It has the most essential features I
2 need, everything else is "do-it-yourself" or extending it with the many
3 available [patches](https://dwm.suckless.org/patches/). The vanilla version is less than 2000 SLOC. This makes it
4 easy to understand and modify it.

7 of the features listed below are patches from suckless.org I applied, but there
8 are also some changes I made.
