Description

Is it currently possible to color occupied workspaces/tags? For exmaple, blue for focused workspace, yellow for occupied, and gray for empty. It would be nice to be able to add those color values to a theme json file.

how does occupied work in DWL? I just want to clarify the distinction because I thought dwl wasnt even showing the tags if they werent occupied (have windows on them).

I'm not sure how it works in dwl. came straight from hyprland to mango. this was possible in waybar with dwl/tags module so i was wondering if it could be done with dms as well.

It could be yea, I'm just wondering cuz in the current dwl implementation I thought every visible tag was "occupied" because ones without windows on them are not shown in the widget. That's why I'm just trying to understand what it is, I don't primarily use mango
