What is bug.n?

bug.n is a tiling window manager add-on for Microsoft Windows, written in the scripting language AutoHotkey. It provides layouts for resizing and moving windows to utilize available screen space, customizable to users' specific needs and workflows. It offers virtual desktops (views) to display only the windows needed for a particular task, with the ability to dynamically resize and move windows without manual adjustments. bug.n can hide the Windows Taskbar and title bars, replacing them with a slim status bar that shows active window information, system details like time, CPU/memory usage, disk/network load, and battery level. It supports multiple monitors and allows users to store their settings, including which windows and layout are set for each view.
