bedHedd's gridmove to kwin adventure

Demos


The repo for my kzone is here

if you want the exact config, you can find it here

background

A couple of years ago, I linked and recommended gridmove. However I haven’t been using windows recently, since I’ve been using Linux for my personal computing and MacOS at work

Part way through I came across the Gridmove Extended Fork, which had the xiphergrid2, which had even more custom layouts

When Chatgpt 4 first came out, I tried having the llm convert xiphergrid into fancyzones, but the output wasn’t as good and didn’t work very well.

Having been inspired by this thread


I decided to see if the o1 reasoning model would be able to solve this

I started by passing this as the first message

first message

Chatgpt suggested this python script

I then asked chatgpt to make the script to this repo structure

I then asked chatgpt to update the script

I then had it generate a readme, and I made some updates

I added the kzones config to my nix plasma manager config. Now it will persist through reboots!
