i3 will open a window full screen, then depending on if you tell it to
open the next vertically or horizontally it will split the screen into
2, then for the third it will split the room the currently focused
window has into half, again vertically or horizontally. You can make
the windows show as tabs if you want too. If there are too many
windows you can move them around in different workspaces( default is
super+shift+q) and then move between workspaces with super+123...0 An
exception to this are dialogue windows. Also if you so desire you can
switch a window from tilling to floating mode, but that doesn't work
very well in my experience.
