 After significant improvements of the Data Catalog [https://trac.osgeo.org/grass/wiki/GSoC/2020/StartupWindow], which led to the creation of a new startup mechanism and the removal of the startup screen, another topic enhancing the user experience comes into consideration - a Single-Window User Interface.
-All historical versions of GRASS GIS are spread across multiple screens. It can be beneficial for some, but it can be a bit annoying as well, as almost every task generates a new wxGUI window freely floating around on the screen. Another drawback with the current solution is that tabs in Layer Manager can cause trouble to new users. This issue was clearly evident from surveys among GRASS users where some of them did not record the Modules tab at all. The new design would therefore assume that all panels would be visible immediately after startup.

 The fact that a Single Window layout would really be appreciated by users can also be deduced from the surveys conducted in my master thesis [https://github.com/ctu-geoforall- lab-projects/dp-kladivova-2021/blob/master/text/linda-kladivova-dp-2021.pdf].
-Of course, especially long-term users can prefer the existing multi-window layout, so this original option will be retained. The single-window GUI will therefore be built "next to" the existing multi-window GUI. As an example, the GIMP software works similarly. It is also left to the user the option to switch to multi-window, but by default, it starts in a single-window layout.

 First, let's look at the current solution in version 7.9 (Spring 2021).
