Lightweight
LaikaWM has a small footprint and is able to run on devices with limited resources, like the Raspberry Pi, all the way up to full-fledged desktops.
Themeable
It is highly customizable with different themes, which are sets of configuration files and SVG images that represent elements in the UI.
A single theme can have multiple variants deriving from the default variant, such as a light and a dark variant of the same theme.
Scalable
All UI elements are vectors, so they appear sharp on any display.
Theme elements are stored as SVGs that are rasterized to PNG images to match the current screen's scaling.
Easy to use
Though it can be configured entirely through text files, LaikaWM also provides a built-in LaikaConfig program that allows you to change settings using only a GUI.
Features you expect
LaikaWM includes support for multiple desktops and window snapping to either side of the screen or any of the 4 corners.
Modern design
LaikaWM uses the latest C++ standard.
Extendable
LaikaWM has built-in support for Meters, which are plugins that display dynamic content.
