Adapted from this script:

Dependencies: python-i3ipc>=2.0.1 (i3ipc-python), python-xlib

Pay attention to the fact that your workspaces need to be numbered, not named,
for the script to work.

Use:
    bindsym $mod+1 workspace number 1

instead of:
    bindsym $mod+1 workspace 1

in your ~/.config/sway/config or ~/.config/i3/config file.
