Presented by Michael Stapelberg.

ABSTRACT

An introduction (with practical examples) to i3, a window manager explicitly targeted at power users (http://i3wm.org/)

Alternative window managers such as i3 provide a way to either make the traditional desktop environments (GNOME, KDE, Xfce) usable or escape them altogether.

Michael is the lead developer and founder of i3.
