Does anyone know of a window manager or some sort of "app tray" that allows me to press something like the super key plus a number to choose the app I want but press it again to start cycling through the apps in that "number column"? I'll try to clarify better if my description is a bit confusing. It doesn't necessarily have to have your typical looking app tray. Could even be those interesting circles too.

You could probably do it pretty easily in Hyprland with the monocle layout and making SUPER+[current_workspace_nr] switch to the next application by adding some lua to your keybinds.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
