very fancy and nice to use. i see

I searched for a River socket or riverctl command that would allow me to get the active workspace number, but i couldn't find a way for that currently in River. so i can't implement it for River not currently at least. unless maybe someone knows a way to get that info who could refer me to the documentation

I guess currently there isn't one, at least directly. I read that there is an undergoing work to separate the window management in River, probably you should check back later after those changes are done. I'm also waiting for those changes to get a more traditional navigation.

cool! thanks for letting me know, i'll try to keep an eye on it

No problem! Thank you too. Also, no need to rush since evolving pace of Wayland window managers are quite fast. Everything changes rapidly, in a good way.
