    Hello, I’ve just released version 3.0 of WindowKeys, a small utility for macOS that gives you full control over the native window tiling system introduced in macOS Sequoia. Originally, WindowKeys was built to solve one very specific problem: assigning custom keyboard shortcuts to window tiling actions — especially useful if you use a third-party keyboard that can’t trigger system shortcuts. Over time it evolved beyond just shortcuts, and now 3.0 adds a few frequently requested features: - Move windows between displays (or iPad) - Repeat last tiling action for each app - Redesigned Shortcut…

    A Tiling Window Manager for Windows, Written in Janet2025 · agent-kilo.github.io · ▲297

    Hi HN! I read[1] about Janet[2] some time ago, then immediately got impressed by the enthusiasm of its community, and by the language itself, so I started playing with it. At the time I was searching for a tiling window manager for Windows, and unavoidably the idea of scratching my own itch with Janet got hold of me, so Jwno was born. Simply put, Jwno is a keyboard-driven tiling window manager for Windows, scriptable with Janet. But since it has a complete Lisp runtime, and a thin wrapper library for Win32 APIs[3], you can certainly do much more with it. I hope you'll enjoy playing with it…

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
