OmniWM is a tiling window manager for macOS inspired by Niri and Hyprland, offering scrolling columns, BSP/dwindle layouts, a Ghostty-powered quake terminal, and a unified command palette. It is developer-signed and notarized, making it safe for managed enterprise environments, and includes IPC/CLI automation.

Use cases

  • tile windows on macOS like Hyprland or Niri
  • manage macOS windows with keyboard-driven tiling
  • use a scrolling column layout on a Mac
  • get a tiling window manager that is notarized for corporate Macs
  • automate window management via CLI and IPC
  • open a quake-style drop-down terminal on macOS

When to choose

  • you want Hyprland/Niri-style tiling on macOS
  • your Mac is enterprise-managed and requires signed, notarized software
  • you want built-in quake terminal and command palette alongside tiling
  • you need CLI/IPC automation of window management

When to avoid

  • you are on Linux or Windows
  • you prefer macOS's native window management or a floating workflow
  • you need a long-established manager with a large plugin ecosystem
