Advantages over i3wm and i3-gaps

wmderland, while derived from i3wm, is built with a different philosophy in mind:

Installation

Distro Source Command
Arch AUR yay -S wmderland-git
Gentoo aesophor-overlay emerge -av x11-wm/wmderland
Others build manually See BUILD.md

Post-Installation

After installation, remember to place a config file (example) at ~/.config/wmderland/config.

Before starting wmderland, EDIT your config first! Or you'll get a blackscreen.
