Opening applications isn't the pain point for me. Its resize and moving windows. i3wm completely solves this problem already. It would be great if someone ported it over to OSX.

I also love i3wm but there are a few tiling window managers available on macOS [0] [1]. Not as easy to use as i3 last time I tried them however that was a while ago and they definitely deserve another shot.

Thanks for posting these.

I really like jigish's Slate[1] for this (maybe I'm just too lazy to switch) but sadly it's not being maintained, and I just noticed that neither is mattr-'s fork[2] as of this month.

Hammerspoon [1] is the suggested replacement. It's pretty good and has a lot of flexibility.

Divvy is pretty nice for this.
