- Main repository - Latest development build. - Wiki - While not terse, a very useful resource.

- Ubuntu/Mint - Use this PPA instead of official which tends to be very old.

- Valid Key Names - Useful for figuring out things like PgUp is actually called Prior so you can map your shortcuts. - Dynamic Tagging - Those numbered tags in upper-left corner can now be renamed on the fly. - Menu Replacement - Unlike default menu that looks very basic compared to other window managers, this menu replaces the original with a more Start-like menu with icons.

- Awesome Copycats - A collection of well-polished themes with distinct look and feel. - Theme with fancy features - A beautiful theme with screenshots. - Another polished theme - A theme showing that you don't have to settle for crappy ASCII art visuals. - awesome-ban - A theme inspired by Copycats themes - awesome-pro - Pro theme updated to support Awesome 4.0 - compton - High-performance compositor for those who like transparent windows. - radical - Fancy generator for custom menus

- Awesome Zen - Collection of widgets with a consistent interface that hides when they're not relevant to declutter your desktop. Also includes utilities for managing windows more effectively. - Awesome WM Widgets - Good options for battery, music, CPU/RAM, and Volume widgets - Lain - Another set of polished Widgets for Awesome - Vicious - Contains modules that gather data about your system

- Volume Icon - Stand-alone volume icon for lightweight WMs that fits well with nm-applet (C). - Network - A wireless + wired network widget that replaces nm-applet (Lua). - Battery - Stand-alone battery widget (C). - Weather - Widget that retrieves localized weather information from Yahoo.

- Basic Calendar - Simple, but pretty calendar. - Calendar w/ TODO - (orglendar) A calendar + to-do list for awesome that reads entries from a .org file (I have a cronjob dumping my Google Calendar to that file) (Lua). - Pomodoro Timer - Hides clutter from the screen for 25 mins, replacing it with a progress bar (Lua). - awesome-scratch - A stashing area for window to declutter the workspace and easily recall programs, doesn't seem to be actively maintained

- screenful - An extension that leverages udev to detect monitor connection/disconnection - autorandr - Automatically select xrandr display configuration based on connected devices

- tmux integration to manage terminal sessions - treesome - no longer maintained, a utility for splitting workspace in a manner similar to TMUX

- Widgets for CPU monitoring, polished mail integration. - Audio/MPD integration that's not overly complex like AwsoMPD (which is somewhat bloated and buggy). - More theme bundles to share (if you want to share your theme, I ask that you attach a screenshot to your repo).
