Reverse engineered prompt

Build me a Windows tiling window manager that feels like i3, but easy to install and use. I want to manage windows mostly from the keyboard, with sensible default shortcuts for focusing, moving, resizing, switching layouts, and sending windows between workspaces. It should handle multiple monitors well and make it easy to move focus and windows across screens.

Please make it create a default config on first launch, using a simple YAML file people can edit. I want support for window rules, so certain apps can open on specific workspaces or behave differently. It should also support startup commands, shutdown commands, and reloading the config without a bunch of hassle.

If possible, include optional status bar integration with Zebar, and provide a simple installer experience plus a sample config and a shortcut cheat sheet so a new user can get started quickly. Make it feel polished and practical for daily use on Windows. Look up current docs online if you need to.
