I am currently on a low-end laptop, as my device has broken down. It runs on 4GB of RAM, and GNOME is pretty heavy on this device. I am looking for a custom WM setup based on Wayland preferably (river, hyprland, sway or dwl). I do not want any fancy shortcuts for terminal or any other app. I want to be able to use a launcher and toggle between workspaces. I want snapping and multi-window gestures just like how it works on GNOME. I would appreciate shortcut icons for shutdown, wifi and sound. And last but not the least, I want to be able to control brightness and light/dark mode.
Can anyone recommend me how I can start setting up a WM in this config file? What do I need to add, apart from the WM itself?
