Different window managers (e.g. tiling) on Windows?
Have you looked into methods of hotkeying or auto-removing windows titlebars once a window belongs to a container (maybe they can auto-restore if a window is floated/unmanaged)? I know that workspacer and win3m have something like this.

Tools to achieve a 10x developer workflow on Windows
The two biggest tiling window manager projects for Windows are komorebi and GlazeWM. Komorebi is probably faster and more resource efficient since it is written in Rust, but I stick with Glaze for now since it has a cool status bar built in I like.
