I use screen (like tmux) and xmonad.

The tiling window-manager is used for longer running GUI apps - webbrowser, pdf/email viewer, CAD etc and for apps that I don't context switch as quickly. Also for handling the dual monitor setup.

I use screen for managing a consistent cli environment - that could be anywhere - on my dev machine, or sshd to a dev container or cloud box. I also tend to context switch screen environments much more quickly - eg. between edit (vim), compile and run turnaround.
