I'm pretty satisfied with yabai for a tiling window manager. https://github.com/koekeishiya/yabai

Can you give some highlights of what this tool does for you? It isn't really clicking for me.

When you open a window it will automatically resize your windows so they all take up the full screen size without overlapping. No more resizing windows with a mouse or having empty screen real estate.

Yabai requires you to disable system integrity protection, which is a dicey proposition.

Yeah it’s a bummer it’s necessary but at least you can turn it back on after you’ve installed it.
