🎉 To start using Bismuth enable it in System Settings > Window Management >Window Tiling. Additionally, you can decorate your windows in a tiling windowmanager style (border-only windows) using the window decoration, that comeswith Bismuth. To do so, go to System Settings > Appearance > Window Decorationsand select the Bismuth decoration.
⌨️ You can view the shortcuts in System Settings > Shortcuts > Window Tiling. Ifyou used Krohnkite before, you can import some of its shortcuts usingthe bashscript.
