I have been using a Macbook Air M1 for professional reasons and would like to amplify Emacs in my life.
I have been searching for the introduction of EXWM in my workflow. Unfortunately, as I started reading the official documentation I discovered that there are some limitations.
In particular:
> Note that EXWM cannot manage native macOS applications at all, only X11 applications will be managed.
This worries me. After following the instructions on this source , I found some of the native macOS applications I have been currently using:
You can see important stuff for my workflow. Like, "zoom" (used for professional meetings). Or karabiner-elements (heavily used by me to Emacsfy my macOS experience).
What are the practical implications of trying EXWM on my machine? For instance, will Emacs hang if I try zoom?
Obs.: I was in doubt about opening this question in emacs.stackexchange or here. I opened it there and someone suggested posting it here.
