FAQPage Schema

How do I automate AeroSpace workspace mapping for specific apps on macOS?▼

You can map apps to macOS workspaces by generating [[on-window-detected]] blocks in your aerospace.toml configuration. This tool guides you through app or window detection and inserts the correct TOML entry in-file.

How do I add an app-id or window-title rule to aerospace.toml?▼

To add an app-id or window-title rule to aerospace.toml, run the guided workflow to select the target app or window. The tool validates parameters, generates the corresponding [[on-window-detected]] block, and performs the in-file insertion.

Can I configure per-host aerospace.toml entries across multiple macOS machines?▼

Yes, per-host aerospace.toml entries are supported across multiple macOS machines. The tool implements host detection to keep workspace configurations organized for each specific host.

Does the AeroSpace config generator support interactive window detection?▼

Yes, the AeroSpace config generator supports interactive app and window detection. It provides clear user prompts during the guided workflow, allowing you to select the correct window and assign it to a workspace interactively.

What are the limitations of automating window rules for AeroSpace?▼

Automating window rules for AeroSpace requires the AeroSpace window manager to be installed and active on your macOS system. The tool specifically generates TOML configurations and does not manage the AeroSpace installation or runtime process itself.
