Here's a video of my workflow if anyone's interested! All the credit for the gorgeous implementation of the tiling goes to the devs over at PaperWM! Better than some tiling WMs that I've tried!

Have you tried SwayWM? If so, what differentiates Paper from Sway?

I'm asking mainly as a Sway user curious about other options (not because I dislike it, it works pretty well for me and I like the automation aspect).

I did try sway but the first thing I got was a config error... on a completely fresh install!

Anyways, PaperWM is just a Gnome extension, giving tiling within Gnome instead of being a dedicated WM like Sway or i3.
