NovaWM

Back to Linux Maximum

NovaWM is a new window manager for the X Windows System(X11). It is developed on a Linux system with a 2.4.18 kernel and X version 4.1.0. NovaWM is developed with speed, size, and style in mind. NovaWM takes on its own style that is different than ANY window manager. NovaWM isn't too large and toyish like many popular window managers like the desktops(KDE and GNOME). Also like some window managers NovaWM has its own toolkit that is much easier to understand and develop with than most others though NovaWM itself doesn't use the toolkit to create its interface, reducing the dependancy on other libraries. NovaWM was also developed with the idea of intergration and digital media in mind and so future versions of NovaWM are planned to support easy application intergration and have support for intergration of digital media applications. NovaWM is also designed to have some familiar elements so the user can get used to using NovaWM easily and quickly (Such elements would be the Minimize, Maximize, and Kill buttons on title bars).
