How to Optimize your Productivity using Tiling: Terminal Multiplexing with tmux and Window Managing with i3 — •Mario Udo Gaimann — Arnold Sommerfeld Center for Theoretical Physics and Center for NanoScience, Department of Physics, Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München, Germany

In this talk I will introduce you to two useful tools that can improve your workflow. In essence, they both offer a keyboard-controlled management of your workspaces and terminals which may – with some practise – boost your efficiency.
Firstly, I will introduce you to the terminal multiplexer tmux, a versatile tool to enhance your command line productivity. You will learn how to create, detach and attach tmux sessions and how to split your terminal into multiple panes and windows.
Secondly, we will have a look at the window manager i3, a desktop environment that allows you to optimize your workspace organization. Here you will learn how to open terminals and applications in an i3 environment, create and split windows, change container layouts, and create new workspaces.
