Rift

Rift lets you move, resize, and rearrange windows from the keyboard. Choose from several layout styles and give different parts of your workflow their own virtual workspaces.

Try Rift

Install Rift, grant macOS Accessibility permission, and press Option + Z to tile the windows on your current desktop. You do not need to write a configuration file before trying it.

The Quick start walks through the whole setup and introduces the default keyboard shortcuts.

Choose how windows are arranged

Rift includes five layouts, from familiar split-screen tiling to scrolling columns and master-stack. Choose one layout everywhere or assign different layouts to individual workspaces. App rules can place windows automatically, while floating mode keeps dialogs and utility windows out of the tiled layout.

• Compare layouts and find one that fits how you work.
• Learn how to focus, move, resize, float, and swap windows.
• Build your own keyboard shortcuts.
• Organize projects and apps with virtual workspaces.

Configure Rift

The bundled configuration is ready to use. To change it, start with the configuration guide and use the configuration reference for available settings, defaults, and accepted values.

Releases, source code, and issue tracking are available on GitHub.
