Sxmo: Linux tiling window manager for phones
Summary: Sxmo is a minimalist environment for Linux mobile devices, offering a simple menu-driven interface and gesture support. It uses suckless or Wayland tools and can be controlled with hardware buttons. The community-sourced context menu adapts to active applications. Sxmo enables SSH access, scriptable actions, and runs on traditional Linux distributions like Alpine Linux and postmarketOS. Users can enjoy the same FOSS apps as on desktops without a locked-down app ecosystem.
