Why are people so determined to make tiling happen on macOS? Am I missing something? The new Windows-inspired resizing has never been useful, and never have I wanted to “tile” windows the way Windows users seem do.
The examples shown on the github page look linux-like to me.
Tiling is great and very useful, even the limited Windows-style tiling. Is your screen not large enough to make a side-by-side view useful?
