Ask HN: Best window manager for macOS?
Since making the switch to Mac four years ago, I have always missed the basic Windows shortcuts for resizing windows (e.g., Win + left arrow). To overcome this, I have been using BetterTouchTool with a few custom shortcuts. This is no longer enough since I have upgraded to a 34-inch ultrawide monitor.
There are quite a few window management apps out there. I just want something that works, no need for a scripting language. Which one has worked best for you?
Spectacle, Divvy, Mosaic, Slate, SizeUp, and Magnet seem to be popular.
- mehly 9y agoSpectacle works great. No complaints.
- azhenley 9y agoI've been using it for a few hours. So far I really like it! It is very simple too, just what I need.
- cpdean 9y agoI wrote something really light-weight in hammerspoon that lets me make a window take up the entire screen, or the left/right/center third of my screen.
