    Here’s a little taste of the pre-alpha COSMIC DE. Tiling is working great and stacking has been introduced. I’ve got four Alacritty windows in the left stack. Running from left to right a watch (ss) , the Helix editor, cmus player, and Felix file manager TUI. COSMIC is utilizing my ZSH config and autosuggestions along with autocompletions working great. The right stack is running Firefox, Librewolf Flatpak, Nautilus and COSMIC settings. Resize is working as expected too.

      Yes!!! :D Loving what you have here! I’m curious tho, can we theme those stacked tabs at all or is that in the pipeline as a feature at some point?

        Yes, I believe theming and color options are in the pipeline. I was aiming at showing how functional the desktop was already despite being pre-alpha. I love the little stack icons they’ve added though.
