In the preceding choice (DWM vs JWM), I recommend JWM. Dwm is a tiled

tiled window manager.
Either way, I strongly recommend you include dmenu, and publicize the
hotkey to invoke it. And I suggest you have a help procedure, and
publicize the key to view help on the desktop, like this:

Not pretty, but pretty much guarantees that anyone can step up to the
keyboard and use it.
