It tiles itself
Open a window and it takes its place. Close one and the rest close the gap. Grid, Columns, Rows or Side — chosen per desktop, remembered per screen.
⌃⌥Rझरोखा Automatic tiling for macOS
हर खिड़की, अपनी जगह।
Jharokha arranges your windows the moment you open them. No dragging, no snapping zones, no thinking. Stacks when it's crowded, glides when it moves, keeps quiet when you share your screen.

Pick a layout, change the count, click a title bar to make it primary, or tap the dots to scroll a stack.
क्या करता है What it does
Open a window and it takes its place. Close one and the rest close the gap. Grid, Columns, Rows or Side — chosen per desktop, remembered per screen.
⌃⌥RMore windows than tiles? They stack neatly, with a little pill showing who's waiting. Scroll through without lifting your hands.
⌃⌥⌘↓Jharokha learns the size each app refuses to go below, and gives browsers and editors the roomy tiles. On a small laptop screen it overlaps a touch instead of giving up.
Pick up a window and every tile lights up. A live preview shows the result before you let go. Hold ⌥⌘ to drop it onto a stack instead.
Drag any edge and the neighbours follow. A soft blur hides the slow redraws other tilers make you watch.
⌃⌥=Desktop 1 for writing, Desktop 2 for calls. Save which app goes where, and Jharokha puts them back every time.
A video, a timer, a call. Pin an app and it follows you to every desktop and every screen, tucked in a corner.
⌃⌥⌘PEvery window, drawn where it actually sits on each of your screens. Hold ⌃⌥, tap ⇥, let go.
⌃⌥⇥तीन रूप Three modes
One window fills the screen. Press again and everything slides back.
⌃⌥ZEverything but the window you're in fades to a whisper.
⌃⌥DShare one window. Everything else becomes a calm card with an eye to reveal it.
⌃⌥PPrivacy Mode: your shared window stays sharp, everything else waits behind a card. Show and hide as many as you like.
कुंजियाँ Hands on the keys
Every action lives behind ⌃⌥. Change any of them in Settings — Jharokha warns you before you clash with macOS.

नाम The name
A jharokha is the carved stone window of Rajasthan's palaces: a frame of many small panes, each one placed with care, so the room behind it stays calm and private. Jharokha does the same for your screen.
सवाल Questions
Yes. Jharokha is open source: every feature, no trial, no licence key. If it earns a place on your Mac, you can buy me a chai.
Only Accessibility, which is how every window manager on the Mac moves windows. No Screen Recording, no network, no account.
Never. Jharokha uses the same public tools as the apps you already trust.
Each screen and each desktop tiles on its own. Vertical monitors stack top to bottom, ultrawides get more columns.
Float a window with ⌃⌥F, or take an app out of tiling for good from the menu. Dialogs and panels are left alone automatically.
