Velox is a dynamic tiling window manager for wayland. It is currently under development.

## Installation

Install the veloxAUR package, or velox-gitAUR for the development version.

The default terminal emulator for velox is st-wayland-gitAUR[broken link: package not found] as it has great wayland support. Other terminals such as urxvt also work, but only under xwayland.

You probably also want to install dmenu-wayland-gitAUR from the AUR to be able to more easily launch applications.

## Configuration

Velox is configured from a configuration file. The configuration file should be in the users home folder named .velox.conf and the defalt configuration can be found here.

## Starting Velox

If you are using the veloxAUR package, you simply execute velox from your terminal.

If you are using velox-gitAUR, you will have to install the package libinput from the extras reposiroty as well as swc-gitAUR from the AUR since the velox-git AUR package is out of date. When these packages are installed, you simply execute swc-launch velox from your terminal.
