# 🌈 Bismuth [](https://conventionalcommits.org) [](https://github.com/prettier/prettier) [](https://community.kde.org/KWin/Wayland) [](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/kwin-bismuth) Arrange your windows automatically and switch between them using keyboard shortcuts. All of that with different layouts and without a complicated setup of classic tiling window managers (i3, dwm or XMonad). Just install Bismuth on any KDE Plasma powered Linux distribution and you are ready to go! 🦾  This is a fork of [Krohnkite](https://github.com/esjeon/krohnkite). The fork was made, because the old project seems to be unmaintained. If you want to import your old shortcuts from it, use the `contrib/import_krohnkite.sh` script. ## 🌟 Features - Full KDE Plasma integration - Multiple Screens, Activities and Virtual desktops - Built-in KWin features (minimize, full-screen and rules) - Floating Dialog windows - Multiple Layouts - Classic Tiling layout - Monocle layout for focusing on one application - Three-Column for wide monitors - Floating layout for traditional experience - Works on Wayland Plasma session ## 🔧 Installation ### From Source Install script from source: npm install # Installs dependencies for building npm run sysdep-install # Install system dependencies for building npm run bi-install # Installs all Bismuth components To uninstall: npm run bi-uninstall ### From distribution packages > :warning: These packages are not affiliated with plugin developers.
