Download the latest release from releases and run it. For live debug output, run from a terminal (cmd.exe or pwsh.exe).

Configuration file aviyal.json will be created at first run. You can modify the default settings there, including adding new keybindings etc. Look at the example config file here

• FOCUS NEXT WORKSPACE: LCONTROL, LSHIFT, L
• FOCUS PREVIOUS WORKSPACE: LCONTROL, LSHIFT, H
• FOCUS WINDOW RIGHT: LCONTROL, L
• FOCUS WINDOW LEFT: LCONTROL, H
• FOCUS WINDOW TOP: LCONTROL, K
• FOCUS WINDOW BOTTOM: LCONTROL, J
• SHIFT WINDOW NEXT WORKSPACE: LMENU (ALT), LSHIFT, L
• SHIFT WINDOW PREVIOUS WORKSPACE: LMENU (ALT), LSHIFT, H
• SWAP WINDOW RIGHT: LMENU (ALT), L
• SWAP WINDOW LEFT: LMENU (ALT), H
• RESTART APPLICATION: LCONTROL, LSHIFT, R (hot reload for config)
• REFRESH TILING: LCONTROL, LSHIFT, U

By default 9 workspaces are initialized.

Aviyal is built using a custom C# Aot compiler called as dflat If you have dflat in path, building is as simple as:

git clone https://github.com/TheAjaykrishnanR/aviyal
cd aviyal/Src
./Build.ps1

You will find the aot compiled executable at bin\aviyal.exe

For development ease, such as LSP a dotnet csproj file is also provided which allows language support in neovim by roslyn. This allows you to build aviyal just like any other dotnet application.

If thats what you prefer, build it as:

git clone https://github.com/TheAjaykrishnanR/aviyal
cd aviyal/Src
dotnet build

You can find the executable at bin\Debug\net*\win-x64
