gTile is a Gnome Shell extension that enhances window tiling by letting users move and resize windows on a configurable grid. It supports mouse and keyboard control, including customizable presets for instant window placement.

Use cases

  • tile windows on a grid in Gnome
  • resize windows with keyboard shortcuts
  • manage windows across multiple large monitors
  • set up keyboard presets for window placement
  • auto-tile and autogrow windows in Gnome Shell

When to choose

  • you use Gnome Shell and want better window tiling than stock behavior
  • you work with multiple large monitors and need fast window arrangement
  • you prefer keyboard-driven window management with customizable presets

When to avoid

  • you use a desktop environment other than Gnome
  • you want a full tiling window manager rather than an extension
  • you run an unsupported Gnome version (e.g., pre-45 without the rewrite)
