first of all, forget the unix philosophy a little bit, one of the most cool parts of programming is experimenting.

i see only two guys that tried to make this possible, the first is here: https://github.com/altermo/nwm/ and the another is https://github.com/GrantCuster/nix-simple . one wrote a x11 window manager that is controlled by nvim, and the another use some scripts to make nvim control the niriwm.

recently the wayland riverwm adopted a client-server model, making wayland wm's a lot easier to be made, open the way to surge a river+nvim wm, like the emacs one: https://codeberg.org/tazjin/reka

what you guys think about this?

i tried many times but i am having problems with seatd. with river-classic all works, but with river non-monolithic seatd just not works.

anyone could have river working? [i use runit]

i am really trying to get these applications work, but i dont find how, neither in the source code. basically all of them depends on swc, that depends on wld. I compile wld, then i go to compile swc, and i asks for "wld .", but wld doens't provide it.

i am just missing something obvious?
