dwm (dynamic window manager) ist ein in der Programmiersprache C geschriebener, schlanker Fenstermanager für das X Window System. Seine Entwicklung begann Mitte 2006. Initiator ist der Gründer und Hauptentwickler von wmii, dem nach eigenen Angaben wmii im Laufe der Entwicklung zu "klobig" wurde.

Ziel von dwm ist es, eine auf das nötigste beschränkte, dynamische Fensterverwaltung zur Verfügung zu stellen. Die Konfiguration von dwm ist ausschließlich durch Anpassung des Quelltextes möglich, was dwm besonders schnell und sicher machen soll.

In seiner Grundkonfiguration verfügt dwm über drei Layoutmodi:

  • das Floating-Layout, in dem sich dwm wie ein herkömmlicher Fenstermanager verhält
  • das Monocle-Layout, in dem alle Fenster komplett maximiert sind
  • sowie als Standard das Tiling-Layout, in dem die Fenster dynamisch verwaltet werden.
