Tiling window management on macOS organizes windows into layouts that automatically resize and position to fill screen space efficiently. AeroSpace implements this with a TOML configuration file at ~/.config/aerospace/aerospace.toml, where you define workspaces, monitor assignments, layout types (h_tiles, v_tiles, h_accordion, v_accordion), and keyboard bindings to control window focus, movement, and resizing.

Yes. AeroSpace brings i3-style hierarchical window management to macOS, supporting multi-monitor setups by assigning specific workspaces to internal and external displays. It organizes windows in nested containers with configurable layouts and gaps, letting you manage complex multi-monitor workflows with keyboard shortcuts for focus, move, and resize operations.

AeroSpace supports four layout types: h_tiles (horizontal tiling), v_tiles (vertical tiling), h_accordion (horizontal accordion), and v_accordion (vertical accordion). You configure these per workspace in your TOML file to control how windows subdivide and fill available space on each monitor.

Define workspaces and their monitor bindings in ~/.config/aerospace/aerospace.toml using TOML syntax. Assign each workspace a specific monitor (internal or external display), set layout types, configure inner and outer gaps between windows, and define key bindings for navigation and window management commands.

AeroSpace includes CLI commands for list (enumerate windows and workspaces), focus (select a window or workspace), move (relocate windows between containers), resize (adjust window dimensions), layout (switch layout types), and monitor/workspace management. These integrate with keyboard bindings to automate desktop workflows.

Yes. AeroSpace is designed for multi-monitor scenarios, letting you assign workspaces to internal (built-in) and external monitors with separate layout configurations, gaps, and window management rules for each display in your TOML configuration.
