Glide

Glide provides a tiling window management experience on macOS, offering tree‑based layouts that arrange windows in a hierarchical fashion. It aims to bring the responsiveness and keyboard‑centric workflow of tiling managers such as i3, Sway, and Hyprland to the macOS environment, while preserving the platform’s native concepts like Spaces and Mission Control.

The manager supports mouse‑follows‑focus and focus‑follows‑mouse, enabling rapid trackpad interaction, and it adapts its layout automatically when switching between external monitors and built‑in displays. Users can adopt Glide incrementally, continuing to use existing macOS window‑switching mechanisms while gradually moving more windows into tiled arrangements.

Glide is built on a mature codebase with a focus on reliability, and it includes optional animations for visual feedback. It is distributed as a stable macOS‑only utility, inviting contributions from the community.
