`i3 4.16` allows users to list multiple outputs for a workspace and the first available will be used. The syntax is as follows: `workspace <workspace> output <outputs...>` Additionally when the workspace is created, the outputs get added to the output priority list in the order specified. This ensures that if a higher output gets connected, the workspace will move to the higher output. This works the same way as if the user had a workspace on an output, disconnected the output, and then later reconnected the output. |

Configuration
If you already use i3, then copy your i3 config to ~/.config/sway/config
and
it'll work out of the box. Otherwise, copy the sample configuration file to
~/.config/sway/config
. It is usually located at /etc/sway/config
.
Run man 5 sway
for information on the configuration.
Running
Run sway
from a TTY. Some display managers may work but are not supported by
sway (gdm is known to work fairly well).
