  • Amethyst

    Automatic tiling window manager for macOS à la xmonad.

    • If you want tiling window management is the same form like Xmonad or i3 style, then you need to look at Amethyst. There are others, but Amethyst gets my vote.. I believe that yabai is another great one.

    A cross-platform, OpenGL terminal emulator.

    • Could you tell me why you think iTerm is so good compared to Linux terminals? You wouldn't happen to know how it holds up to Alacritty which is my current terminal of choice.
