Omni

Omni is an open‑source tiling window manager that draws inspiration from Niri and Hyprland, adding animated transitions to window operations. It runs on macOS (including Apple Silicon) and Intel x86/x64 platforms, providing a native‑tab replacement and a unified command palette that can invoke window actions and application menus from anywhere on the screen. The manager supports a variety of layouts such as Niri and Dwindle, and offers features like sticky terminals via ghostty’s libghostty, scratchpad windows, and the ability to hide or unhide status‑bar icons.

The software targets users who prefer a highly configurable, keyboard‑driven workspace on macOS, especially those who want tiling behavior combined with visual animations and advanced window handling. Its IPC/CLI interface allows external scripts or programs to control windows, while additional utilities such as “keep awake” and interactive workspace bars enhance productivity without requiring separate applications.

Omni’s distinctive aspects include the integration of Niri‑style layouts, a command palette that works across windows and app menus, and support for sticky or scratchpad windows for any application. The project is maintained by a community of contributors and is marked as stable and free to use.
