If you could open some GitHub issues (or even just drop me a bullet point list here) of the issues you're facing with komorebi it would be appreciated!

Hey thanks for the attention, I think the project is awesome and when it works I feel right at home.
Two big issues I encountered today running 0.1.8 installed with Scoop on Windows 11 Education N:
1. The empty space around apps gets bigger as you move them to new workspaces not primary (this is with Komorebi's workspaces, not Windows' Virtual Desktops which you have indicated have poorly documented APIs). It seems to be this issue [1] but that issue was closed as fixed
2. Sometimes apps left empty spaces when they were minimized. That might have been VS Code or Spotify (or Slack?). Spotify when visible didn't resize appropriately.
All my user-installed apps if that is helpful:
- KeyPirinha
- Mochi
- PowerToys
- Slack
- Telegram Desktop
- TickTick
- Ubuntu on Windows
- VS Code
- Thunderbird
- Ditto
- Everything
- 1Password
VS Code Remote makes working inside WSL basically native (I use Emacs on my Linux machine).
FancyZones courtesy of PowerToys makes for an acceptable tiling experience. I tried to use Komorebi but at least 0.1.8 has too many issues to recommend at this point.
Kind of excited to dive into PowerShell in a Month of Lunches next.
