i3 is a tiling window manager, completely written from scratch.

i3 was created because wmii, our favorite window manager at the time, didn't
provide some features we wanted (multi-monitor done right, for example), had 
some bugs, didn't progress since quite some time and wasn't easy to hack at 
all (source code comments/documentation completely lacking). Still, we think 
the wmii developers and contributors did a great job. Thank you for inspiring 
us to create i3.

Please be aware that i3 is primarily targeted at advanced users and developers.

This requires libev and yajl.
