  • i3-layout-manager

    Saving, loading and managing layouts for i3wm.

    • have a look at how I3-layout-manager handles already spawned windows.

  • autotiling

    Script for sway and i3 to automatically switch the horizontal / vertical window split orientation

    • Also, autotiling will get you to a layout like OP's as the windows are added - doesn't exactly answer the question ("when the windows are already open"), but may be what many people actually want.
