I run emacs as a server. I have keybindings to run specific programs in their own frame.

  bindsym $mod+grave exec emacsclient -c -a ''
  bindsym $mod+Shift+b exec emacsclient -c -a '' -F '(quote (name . "buffers"))' --eval '(ibuffer)'
  bindsym $mod+Shift+d exec emacsclient -c -a '' -F '(quote (name . "dired"))' --eval '(dired nil)'
  bindsym $mod+Shift+f exec emacsclient -c -a '' -F '(quote (name . "feeds"))' --eval '(elfeed)'
  bindsym $mod+Shift+s exec emacsclient -c -a '' -F '(quote (name . "eshell"))' --eval '(eshell)'
