i3-overview is ready!

2021/12/04 C,linux

i3-overview is an application that shows thumbnails for all workspaces to make navigation in i3 easier.

Features

Sometimes when I have to open an extreme amount of windows in i3 I really miss macos’s expose function. So I decided to create someting similar but simple and minimalistic that fits i3’s philospohy. It draws a schema based on i3-msg’s get_tree output, it opens an X window and puts the image there.

Get it from github
