Stackline is a Hammerspoon-based Lua plugin that adds visual indicators to yabai's window stacking feature on macOS. It shows the position and count of stacked windows, optionally using app icons, with multi-monitor support.

Use cases

  • visualize stacked windows in yabai on macOS
  • show indicators for tabbed window stacks
  • see which apps are in a yabai window stack
  • manage stacked windows across multiple monitors
  • add a UI to yabai window stacking

When to choose

  • you use yabai as your macOS tiling window manager and rely on window stacks
  • you already run Hammerspoon and want stack indicators
  • you want app icons or slim indicators for stacked windows

When to avoid

  • you don't use yabai or Hammerspoon
  • you need actively maintained software - the author stopped development in 2021
  • you want a standalone window manager rather than a visualization add-on
