Cool, but impractical. With FVWM/WMaker you have usable screen state with system info and functionality.

You could replicate it with FVWM and using a 10th of the resources.

Inb4 Enlightenment back in the day, E16 used not as much as resources as this, even E21 is far snappier than ruling an NPM based desktop.

Someone should do a practical one for an overview of what all your containers and AWS accounts are doing. AWS monitoring provides a reason for a map of the world with lines and markers. There are AWS monitoring tools which, with better color choices, would look like something from Hollywood. Dynatrace is almost there.[1]
