Kap VS yabai

I thought it was Kap for a moment https://getkap.co/ similar name, similar product (but that one is ready to use).

Also a bit confused as it seems there is nothing there besides an idea and a landing page.

Kap - Price: Free Screen recording app for Mac that allows you to record your screen and webcam with ease.

If you want free yet still powerful, check out the open-source kap. Pair it with something like BlackHole to reroute your system audio into kap and you've got a great combo without spending a dime.

I just came across Kap, via 👉 https://indiegoodies.com/awesome-mac-apps … maybe it fits your needs? I'll be trying it too.

Another alternative po which i’ve been using is the free open source screen recorder called kap

Kap is great https://getkap.co/

Kap is an app to record your screen. I use Kap primarily in my work to record some flow of a website. Kap produces small video sizes with good quality compared to other screen recording apps.

It exists! Check out [yabai](https://github.com/koekeishiya/yabai), which is nicely paired with [skhd](https://github.com/koekeishiya/skhd).

I have a 49 inch CRG9 and the best recommendation for window management is Yabai (https://github.com/koekeishiya/yabai) along with skhd (https://github.com/koekeishiya/skhd). Yabai is a greedy window management solution that tries to fit opened applications in given space and skhd let's you easily jump between those using keyboard shortcuts. This has massively improved my ultrawide experience.

Only disclaimer is, configuring yabai has a slight learning curve.

Want something free that's better than tiling on Windows? Yabai.

Here it is. There is no visualization of the stack, which apparently Stackline in the other comment supports, but I don't tend to need that. Just being able to move between the windows is good enough for me.

I use Yabai on my Macs without SIP enabled. Here’s a list of the features that absolutely require SIP to be disabled: https://github.com/koekeishiya/yabai/issues/1863

But you don’t need to disable SIP just for tiling.

> there's still a ton of tinkering and tweaking you need to do to get Yabai really working correctly

This is pretty much true of basically every tiling window manager on Linux, too.

For me, using Nix-Darwin for MacOS and NixOS has drastically simplified my tiling window manager setup after initially doing the work to figure out my ideal config.

SIP is a feature that protects you from malicious actors with root (admin) access on your device. After they've encrypted your photos and drives and changed your passwords, it prevents them from making your machine unbootable by deleting or altering system binaries. As a side effect of this protection, you give up certain freedoms to customize your system.

For instance requires SIP to be disabled.

This is disproven by the fact that Yabai [1] can instantly swap spaces with SIP disabled.

If you find the native window management lackluster (like I do), you can install a window manager like Amethyst, or yabai, veeer, or many others.
