These doom configs will make magit always open in a dedicated workspace. ​ (map! :after magit :map magit-mode-map :nv "q" #'+workspace:switch-previous) (map! :leader "g s" (cmd! (+workspace-switch "magit" :auto-create-p) (magit-status-setup-buffer)))

Was wondering if anyone has a nice config to widen focused windows. I have seen a screencapture of someone else doing this a while ago and forgot about it, but is now something that would help me out a bit. ​ Idea is, when I focus a window, it widens by a few characters. When I switch to another window, it shrinks back down and the new focused window gets larger. Just want to know if a package already implements this or not before I go and hack it together myself :)

Something like [https://github.com/roman/golden-ratio.el](https://github.com/roman/golden-ratio.el) or [https://github.com/cyrus-and/zoom](https://github.com/cyrus-and/zoom) maybe?

Exactly this! thank you so much :)
