What it does
KiwiDesk is a tiling window manager for macOS that keeps your Mac calm and organized: every window finds its place in one of seven layouts, apps open with a shortcut, and mouse users get a Space Bar they can drag windows onto. It works with your native macOS Desktops: bind a profile to each one and it loads the moment you swipe there, with its own spaces, layouts, colors and shortcuts. Everything is set in a native Settings app, no config file needed. Free to use, source on GitHub.
KiwiDesk keeps your Mac calm and organized — open apps by shortcut, save your favorite layouts, and let every window find its place.
KiwiDesk arranges your open windows into a neat layout, automatically. Everything you’re working on stays on screen, right where you can reach it. Simple to start — with room to grow when you are. Signed and notarized. Requires macOS 14 or later on Apple silicon. “Tiling managers were always a nerd's toy. I wanted to make them intuitive for everyone – it should just work, like that.” “I wanted a window manager that works with you — not one you have to tell how to work.” KiwiDesk is a window manager: it puts your open windows in order for you, instead of leaving that to you. Open a window and it slots neatly into place beside the others — tidy, edge to edge, no gaps you didn’t ask for.…from kiwidesk.kiwicanopy.com

Omacosy – Omarchy-style tiling desktop for macOS, no SIPAug 2026 · github.com · ▲57I have been using omarchy on my tower since nearly a year now, shortly after it was released first. I really love the experience I am having with it but I still use my macbook for daly work, so I wanted to recreate a similar experience on it. Thats why I created omacosy, a setup for tiling windows, custom menu bar, some themes from omarchy, focus follows mouse, focus rings around windwos, some mac flavors with trackpad events and a custom mission control overview for your workspaces. I used AeroSpace over yabai for the tiling window manager because I didnt wanted to compromise on SIP which…
