They're written in Ruby from scratch. Some are available, e.g. the window manager is here:

Beware that one of the joys of writing these for my own use is that I've only added the features I use, and fixed bugs that matter to me, and "clean enough to be readable for me" is very different from best practice for a bigger project.

I'm slowly extracting the things I'm willing to more generally support into gems, though.






thanks! I love ruby but I'd be afraid to do anything but web backends and shell scripting with it. it's people like you who move language adoption!
