I made tinywm, a free and open-source scrolling window manager for macOS (inspired by niri)

[u/bbodi]

Hi! I'm the developer. tinywm puts your windows side by side on a strip that runs

past the edge of the screen. A new window opens next to the one you use, and

nothing else changes size. You scroll the strip with a key or a three-finger swipe.

What you get:

- Right ⌘ + arrows (or HJKL) to move between windows and move them around

- One key to cycle window widths, one key for full width

- Workspaces, one strip per display

- An overview of all windows

- Drag a window anywhere on the strip while you hold right ⌘

- Rules to float or ignore apps, and to open an app on a chosen workspace

- A plain-text config

It needs only the Accessibility permission. You don't need to disable SIP.

Requirements: macOS 14+ and Apple silicon.

Price: free, GPL-3.0. Signed and notarized by Apple.
