## What it is
bug.n is a tiling window manager add-on for the Microsoft Windows Explorer shell, written in AutoHotkey. It dynamically arranges windows into customizable layouts, provides virtual desktops (views), and replaces the taskbar/title bar with a slim status bar.

## Use cases
- tile windows automatically on windows like a dwm-style tiling wm
- manage virtual desktops on windows with hotkeys
- hide the windows taskbar and title bars to maximize screen space
- keyboard-driven window management without the mouse
- show system info like cpu, memory and battery in a status bar
- use tiling window management across multiple monitors

## When to choose
- you want dwm/awesome-style tiling on Windows without replacing the shell
- you prefer keyboard-driven window and virtual desktop management
- you want to reclaim screen space from the taskbar and title bars

## When to avoid
- you need a full shell replacement for Windows
- you are on a non-Windows platform
- you want a project with frequent updates or modern AutoHotkey v2 support
