Jesus Fkng Christ. All that hard work to get something that Windows has built-in and ready to go. When will you mac people learn?

Simply get Linux. Whole new world will start.

Man, I wanted to like this so bad, but it doesn't seem to play well with the Colemak keyboard layout even after adding the Colemak keymaps as suggested in the docs. If someone knows a trick, I'm all ears.

Great content and blog. Thanks

Thank you!

I have a week off from work, so it's a perfect timing. Reminds me of DWM from suckless. Never had an implementation, that I really liked on Mac, but this looks very promising. Implementing it on my MacBook Air now, and later this week, I'll try it on my Mac Studio with dual-monitor setup.

okay ,, that lua usage is a pivot point , wow, been looking for something like this for so long!!

Thank you so much

finally a sane tiling manager for mac

You should try difftastic to replace delta :)

Aside: Thank you, Josean! I've been using vim (and nvim since a few years ago) for over 10 years. I've been abusing tmux splits and not using vim to the extent it's capable of being used. The lua configs are _way_ easier to understand than vim script. Between this video, Chat GPT, reading the first few chapters of the online book on lua, and learning that `:help nvim-plugin-name` works really well to find config options, I feel _much_ more empowered to dig into my editor settings and dotfiles and much less intimidated when trying to get something done ... and much less scared that touching anything might break what I already have working.

hi, thanks for the good content. I am using Reviung41 and your keymaps so far the best for me. I got a question, when using Aerospace what is your shortcut to numbered workpaces? is it still number, thats mean you need to go to anothr layer. or you create your own shortcut?

I have yet to watch this. For fear that now I'll have to switch over. Damn you @Josean. Damn you. ;-) I'll try to comment again tomorrow once I've done what we all know will end up happening. Damn you.

I hoped you included config for Python development, I tried to do so upon your nvim repo, I failed!

Thanks! Yo no podia usar yabai por que en la mac del trabajo no me dejaban desactivar esas funciones, estaba usando Amethyst pero era un desastre con multiples monitores, ahora estoy probando y acostumbrandome a aeroespace, se ve muy bueno. Saludos!

Thanks for this! I lived yabai and I was using it for around 2 years, but man aerospace is soooo much better!

I was so frustrated with having to switch to a Mac for work, but tried Yabai and hated it. Found Aerospace and have been using it ever since, about 4 months now. Love it. Very configurable, fast and scriptable. I've stopped having to mess with window positioning despite regularly going back and forth from working directly on my laptop and docking with dual 4k monitors where I want a very different layout.

The SIP, thing is why I stopped using yabai in favor of amethyst. Thanks for the recommendation.

Wow, thank you, great overview of a great WM. I've been using yabai for some time but found it a bit too complex and getting in my way. This seems perfect. You should contact the developers of aerospace and they should link your review on the project page cause there "official" video is really bad and doesn't do justice to the project.

Cool video, man. I like using i3 in Linux, and I’m very happy to use it on my Mac. But I don’t really like the full-screen mode on Mac.

I would love to have this on Warp But I'm really a newbie... Odin Project Essencials yet.

I switched to Aerospace around 8 months ago (from Yabai) and I even contributed to Aerospace, but then I realized that actually I don't need any tiling manager, because 90% of time I use a single window maximized. And for the rest 10% of time I can just use a simple app that can move the window to the left or right :D. In my case it was actually a productivity boost, because I didn't have to fight anymore with multiple glitches caused by tiling managers like when a small window pops up and the whole layout is getting crazy :D Anyway, great video!

I've been wanting to try a twm for a while, but the SIP requirement of Yabai always scared me off. Glad I've got a good option to try now!

Rectangle does everything I'd ever want. This seems nice for what it is though.

How did you get a translucent browser window? and while I have you I was curious if you altered your sketchybar config for aerospace? I love the aesthetics of that config and would love to get that working

@joseanmartinez, thanks for the video! I've been using yabai + skhd for a couple years now, but I am not 100% happy with it. I will give AeroSpace a try. Unrelated question: what monitor resolution do you use when recording your screen for YT videos?

Can I use command instead of option? How to map `alt` to `command` key?

Hi, Thx for the Video, i tried Aerospace and i like it, have some Problems on my Mac with alt-shit combination, as long as I can't fix that, I can work differently but where I can't work differently: how do you write/get/manage the at sign (@) while alt-l change the focus? have i missed somthing?

I can confirm this way better than yabai, thanks for sharing

Thank you! I didnt think much of it, and the configuration seemed way more complicated than it actually is, but I am happy I did it! Even though the software is in beta, for me it works near flawlessly. My only problem is, that when I move a window on monitor #3 into a new Workspace X for example, it will move it there, but when I switch to X (ALT-X), it appears on monitor #1 and I have to Move-Workspace-To-Monitor it twice. Why can't the workspace be created in the monitor where I was. Maybe you know something.

Nice videos but your keyboard is annoying.

What a great video! Thank you for the time and effort you put into these tutorials. I've just finished installing Aerospace and WezTerm after watching your latest videos, love both of them!

How do you show your git hashes like that on the terminal?

Hello Josean, Is it possible for a non-coder to use your website theme and be able to write blogs? Can you create a video step by step video on vscode just showing what files needs to be modified and where to add new blog posts?

Dis dude got some Hindu in him. He's too smart.

Good video... I really like the configuration of it compared to anything else mac has to offer; however, they all still lack one thing I want more than anything... and that's having keybinds for placing the window in predefined regions.... a great example of this is Tactile Windows Management for linux..... Long shot but does anyone know of a macos windows manager that does this?

thanks for this video dude, this is so much better than yabai!

Great stuff - I really liked i3 when Linux was my daily driver, and have wanted a similar experience since moving to Mac - I like the Mac experience, except for the window management, and aerospace goes a long way towards making it better. Now I just have to get these shortcuts under my fingers.

This is amazing, thank you!

Could not parse linter output due to: Expected value but found invalid token at character 1 output: Error: Could not find config file. eslint_d [1, 1] Anybody getting this issue? I have .eslintrc.json file set up

I can see no Sketchybar on the video (even though Aerospace docs mention it). Have you given up on using it?

Thank you for this video! I watched your Yabai video and was not convinced with the Yabai config but it looks like Aerospace solves most of the issues for me. I will git it a try for sure. I use Mac since 2001 and hate the navigation. I am shocked not every OS has real tiling option (usually it's a kind of crutch that doesn't give you full control over apps and desktop). Please do more of it especially "how tos" and "step-by-steps" :D

In i3wm you can switch focus from monitor to monitor by basically moving focus. So for example, in the monitor above you do `alt-j` it changes the focus to the monitor below, I see that doesn't happen in Aerospace. Can that be implemented?

8 GB OF RAM

As always amazing content. I really liked this one and I am going to try Aerospace right away 😄 Thank you Jose! 🙏🏻

This is great! Thank you for the crash course!

From yabai to aerospace and ni back to simple raycast

I couldn't agree more, your keymaps is easier to remember than mine, just by watching your video I suddenly used your keymap on my config and thought why it wasn't working, it was not my keymap afterl all😅

Thanks for the video! I tried AeroSpace a few months ago but was turned off by the size of the hidden windows in the corner. I ended up using yabai with SIP disabled to get the functionality I wanted. Looks like there have been a number of releases since then and the latest release looks to make improvements to the hidden windows. I didn’t notice seeing any hidden windows showing in your video. Is this a moot issue now?

for some reason, i can't change the focus between windows, any ideas why?
