Post comment/reviewWhat is JWM?
JWM is a light-weight window manager for the X11 Window System. JWM is written in C and uses only Xlib at a minimum. Because of its small footprint, JWM makes a good window manager for older computers and less powerful systems, such as the 
Raspberry Pi, though it is perfectly capable of running on modern systems. JWM is included in small Linux distributions such as 
Puppy Linux and 
Damn Small Linux, and it is available as a separate package in many other distributions.
