Microwindows or Nano-X is a small graphical windowing system that implements both Win32 and Nano-X (X11-like) APIs for clipped graphics drawing in windows on Linux, Mac OS X, EMSCRIPTEN, Android and other platforms. It is Open Source and licenced under the the Mozilla Public License. For creating GUIs, the Nuklear immediate mode GUI, Win32 builtin controls, and TinyWidget's controls based on Nano-X are included. FLTK can be used with the X11 compability library NX11.
Some of the supported platforms are listed at the bottom on the left side. Next to that there are available screen drivers, mouse drivers and keyboard drivers. The Nano-X / Microwindows engine is the core code that implements all drawing and clipping, with the Win32 and Nano-X graphical windowing APIs implemented in seperately configurable layers on top of that. The engine is configured to use various OS platforms and associated screen, mouse and keyboard drivers, or bare hardware. The Nano-X API and the Win32 APIs are used to write applications. To provide close X11 compatibility the NX11 library can be built on top of the Nano-X API, which allows X11 applications to be linked and run without recompilation. The FLTK GUI toolkit runs based on NX11.
The TDE project began as a continuation of the K Desktop Environment (KDE) version 3. The name Trinity was chosen partly because the word means "three" and TDE was a continuation of KDE 3. TDE now is its own computer desktop environment project. Equipped with a suitable collection of desktop effects that remain compatible with older hardware. Responsive on older hardware, while also being compatible with newer hardware. Compatible with, but not requiring, 3D acceleration (unlike KDE Plasma). Compatible with freedesktop.org and Linux file system hierarchy standards. Compatible with other desktop environments.

Looks like there's a third party Arch package repository for TDE: https://wiki.trinitydesktop.org/Arch_Trinity_Repository_Installation_Instructions
XFiles is a file manager for X11. It can navigate through directories, show icons for files, select files, call a command to open files, generate thumbnails, and call a command to run on right mouse button click. Supports running scripts when the user selects a file.
This is an old-school X11-style X application. No toolkit, no desktop environment, no skinning, just a file manager.
Polybar aims to help users build beautiful and highly customizable status bars for their desktop environment, without the need of having a black belt in shell scripting. It has built-in functionality to display information about the most commonly used services. Has a large number of built-in widgets for many different facets of system status.
In the AUR.
Text mode window environment. A "retro" program for embedded or remote systems, that doubles as X11 terminal and text-mode equivalent of VNC server. It's a serious oversimplification, but think text-mode X, or maybe something like Desqview for DOS. Mouse support, window manager, terminal emulator and networked clients, all inside a text display.
A hacked X server that displays everything as ASCII art.
