Wow, that's a really long comment.
Stack is not open source, however, some libs are (though only non-window management related). You can find them at https://github.com/losttech/
There's really not many WinAPI to call. SetWindowHookEx for handling global mouse events (there's an open source lib I use actually). MoveWindow to (guess what?) move windows. The rest is mostly hand-made.
There is no JavaScript extensibility right now, but I could think about one for the future versions.
Basically, extensibility right now is limited to decorations in XAML. However, that will be significantly extended when some features I mentioned above will land.
What I also though about is an open source library of pre-made screen layouts.
