Show HN: SteppeWM – a stacking IceWM-like Wayland compositor (github.com)
dong2go 8 hours ago [-]
IceWM's other reason I kept it around was the config being a few plain text files. Is SteppeWM configured that way too, or is it still a wlroots compositor that wants XML/Lua for the panel and keybinds?

Does it run as well on old/underpowered hardware as IceWM?

(I really only use IceWM on systems that would struggle with XFCE.)

It's pretty lightweight, so yes, but it does use wlroots after all, so there's a limit

I tried it but it was really a struggle to get like OSD or an actual good non-janky taskbar; all implementations are either buggy or cannot be as useful as i was hoping

labwc is closer to Openbox; it doesn't ship a taskbar.
