Show HN: Qt bindings for i3wm's IPC interface

Qt bindings for i3wm's IPC interface operates in show hn launch.

Profile

A handful of C++ libraries already exist for interprocess communication with i3wm. However, integrating them with Qt tends to require quite a lot of boilerplate. For my own projects, none of them could be integrated in a way that feels clean enough to my taste, so I decided to build my own library to do just that.The result is qi3pc. A simple C++ library that provides idiomatic Qt bindings for i3wm's IPC interface.Getting information from i3 is as simple as sending a message and waiting for a reply or subscribing to events and waiting for them to be triggered. This is done with the signal/slot mechanisms offered by Qt and normal C++ functions.

Within the show hn launch space, the company focuses on its core offering rather than a broad product line.

The company is listed at the Show HN launch stage of development.
