Layout requirements - how do I achieve these things?

[ortonomy]

1. Different layouts for different displays

• I regularly switch between my built-in mac display (16:10) and an ultrawide external display (21:9)
• I want to use horizontal accordion only on on my 16:10 internal display, and then a 2 column horizontal split on the ultrawide, with each column being a vertical accordion

Anyone know how to write the config file to achieve this?

2. Two column horizontal split, with each column being a vertical accordion

Like this

Is it even possible?

You have to manually organize windows by using move and join-with commands.

If you want dynamic twm -> #260

twm

What is twm? - tiling window manager?

this is a feature proposal, right? It doesn't work yet?

You mean every time I launch a window? :S

If you have at least two windows in an accordion, launching new window will attach it to the accordion

Thanks so far @nikitabobko

How do I even achieve with these? Like given this layout:

h_tiles
├── window 1 (focused)
└── window 2

what commands do I need to run to achieve this? join-with and move don't create a new layout nodes? It's not very clear if I need to run this from command line? How can I run a command from terminal for currently focused window when the terminal has to be focused to type?

h_tiles
├── v_accordion 
    └── window 1
└── v_accordion 
    └── window 2
