Since various people are asking about xmonad-like tiling in wayland:

I wrote Vivarium[0] specifically to be a wayland compositor that behaves exactly like my (fairly simple) xmonad config, but it's a relatively new/unstable compositor and nothing like xmonad internally.

River[1] has a fantastic tiling model via user-provided executables, which makes it very flexible and probably a good fit for many people wanting something xmonad-like.

Waymonad[2] exists as a direct xmonad-like compositor, but I think development has been basically stalled for a long time. Sometimes there's discussion about reviving it though (edit: see https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28796909 for more up to date detail).

Japokwm[3] is another compositor with xmonad user roots, but again its own tiling model.
