When you resize a window in MacOS it is already builtin that it is aware of the edges of inactive windows. The edges of the active window you are resizing will very lightly snap to the edges of other windows, such that is nearly impossible to make two windows either separated or overlapping by only a couple pixels.

It's too bad that there isn't at least a hidden property in `defaults` to adjust the intensity of the snapping. Hammerspoon and Karabiner work well for the type of audience found on HN, but coding your own customizations can seem like a lot of work, and there are still some unnecessary limitations to what you can do.




Bettersnaptool makes it work like windows, drag and hold toolbar and it'll snap to the closest edge
