Hello. I'm a long time i3 user and recently have switched to KDE. However the window management is quite bad for me. So I installed Krohnkite. I wanted to know how can I configure Krohnkite to act like i3?

You cant make Krohnkite directly like I3, becuase its a Dynamcic and not a Manual Tiling Manager, meaning:
you use layouts, and Windows get positionend in them, and you can move them around in it, whe in a manual Tiler, you specificly say, where to put windows.
basicly, Krohnkite is like awesome and not i3, and there isnt really a way to change it.

You can make it more simmilar though

under its KWIN settings, set the Behaviour style to Directional:

bind your keys under Settings > Shortcuts > Kwin

Also read the Readme, it explains howto do some specific stuff at the bottom.
Saidly you cant use the Move Hotkey to move between screens, and will have to configure an extra key for that.
