i3-wm

improved dynamic tiling window manager

Key features of i3 are good documentation, reasonable defaults (changeable in a simple configuration file) and good multi-monitor support. The user interface is designed for power users and emphasizes keyboard usage. i3 uses XCB for asynchronous communication with X11 and aims to be fast and light-weight. Please be aware i3 is primarily targeted at advanced users and developers.

i3

metapackage (i3 window manager, screen locker, menu, statusbar)

This metapackage installs the i3 window manager (i3-wm), the i3lock screen locker, i3status (for system information) and suckless-tools (for dmenu). These are all the tools you need to use the i3 window manager efficiently.
