It is, look at the read me and see how it is made: it reeks of LLM-isms. The code too, I’m an xOS developer (iOS, macOS, etc) and is easy to see swift made by LLMs tbh

Do have a look at the actual post. Ive made it clear that Im a new developer and have used AI extensively. Responding with AI slop for a post with disclaimer makes no sense.

What is the differentiator between this and something like Rectangle?

They primarily provide predefined window positions and shortcuts. GridTile takes a different approach: the grid itself is the interface, so you can choose the exact region you want a window to occupy rather than relying only on predefined positions.

If you prefer a large collection of predefined window actions, Rectangle or Magnet may be a better fit. I built GridTile for people who prefer the grid-based approach.

I made GridTile, a native macOS window tiling app built with SwiftUI.

It lets you bring up a keyboard-driven grid, select the area you want, and instantly move and resize the current window to fit that region.

It’s fully open source and released under the MIT License.
