It’s also built by developers and used by a huge swathe of developers… The math should stack up here, right? A considered approach I appreciate it’s perhaps a bit niche, but GNOME is a niche desktop environment itself. Now, part of me is confused as to why something as basic as window tiling is missing from GNOME Shell at all. Work to add quarter tiling window management started back in 2017 but hasn’t (to me knowledge) advanced any further since.īut these “features” are mere crumbs compared to the ‘full loaf’ served up in proper tiling window managers like i3-wm and its ilk. GNOME Shell already supports half-window tiling (aka window snapping) and there’s a setting to centre all new windows by default. Sterling efforts like Material Shell, gTile and ShellTile are great because they not only deliver on this oft-requested tiling functionality but they help to push the boundaries of what GNOME Shell can be made to do. Now tiling window extensions for GNOME Shell are not new.
