1 Read me first
After installing, you'll have an xmonad binary on your system. From there, you'll need to wire xmonad up to your login manager.
2 Linux
2.1 Arch
$ pacman -S xmonad # for the core package $ pacman -S xmonad-contrib # for the contrib package
See xmonad on ArchWiki for more info.
2.2 Debian
2.3 Fedora
2.4 Gentoo
$ emerge xmonad-contrib
- the contrib package depends on xmonad so it gets also installed
if you only want to install xmonad without contrib you could use: $ emerge xmonad
2.5 Gobo
2.6 NixOS
2.7 Slackware
2.8 Source Mage
2.9 Ubuntu
$ apt-get install xmonad # for the xmonad binary $ apt-get install libghc6-xmonad-dev # to allow configuration through xmonad.hs $ apt-get install libghc6-xmonad-contrib-dev # for all of the contrib modules
Note: On Hardy Heron and earlier, the libghc6-x11-dev package was compiled without Xinerama support. This means that if you want multi-monitor support, you will either need to upgrade to Intrepid Ibez or compile xmonad (and the Haskell X11 library on which it depends) from tarball.
3 BSD
3.1 FreeBSD
3.2 NetBSD
3.3 OpenBSD
xmonad is in the ports tree. To install it,
sudo pkg_add xmonad
4 Mac OS X
5 Generic (from tarball)
6 Generic (from Hackage)
xmonad can be installed from source on any system with an up-to-date Haskell toolchain:
$ cabal install xmonad
