Products that do what SpinWin – A macOS menu bar app to visually rotate or spin any window does
SpinWin is an open source menu bar app to visually rotate any individual window. You can rotate / spin as many as you want one by one. I was scrolling reels when one came on where the content creator suggested "turning the phone upside down" for a portion. I was sitting at my mac, and decided to see if I could find something that did this. To my surprise, nothing exists, so I decided to build it. Turns out macOS doesn't provide any public API to do anything like this, so I wound up using the Accessibility API to move the target window offscreen, where it keeps rendering. Then we capture…

Hello HN, This is a macOS app that allows you to see all your open windows on each monitor and select the one you want. It also lets you view the current state of things like email or chat windows, terminal processes, and more. You can use "cmd" and the key above the tab key for alt-tab like behaviour. You can also toggle the UI by resting a finger on the corner of your trackpad. I also wrote some dev details here: https://madebyenzo.com/#robata
