About xmonad
In a normal WM, you spend half your time aligning and searching for windows. XMonad makes work easier, by automating this. An Update for our Sponsors—and a Request. It has been a little bit over a year since XMonad version 0.17.0 was released; this was also the time in when we first started looking for funding. On the whole, the number of people who decided to support us has been astounding: thank you! While our expenses are completely transparent, it can be hard to keep up if you’re not directly involved in the project. xmonad automates the common task of arranging windows, so you can concentrate on getting stuff done. Haskell and smart programming practices guarantee a crash-free experience.

FancyZones
FancyZones is a window manager utility for arranging and snapping windows into efficient layouts to improve the speed of your workflow and restore layouts quickly. FancyZones allows you to define a set of zone locations to be used as targets for Windows on your desktop. When you drag a window into a zone or enter the associated keyboard shortcut, the window is resized and repositioned to fill that zone. You can also trigger zone selection mode by clicking the non-primary mouse button if the "Use non-primary mouse button to toggle zone activation" setting is enabled. If two zones are adjacent, a window can be snapped to the sum of their area (rounded to the minimum rectangle that contains both). When the mouse cursor is near the common edge of two zones, both zones are activated simultaneously, allowing you to drop the window into both zones. You can drag the window until one zone is activated, then press and hold the control key while dragging the window to select multiple zones.
