Rooms

Rooms is a macOS menu-bar window-management app that saves each project as a named room containing selected windows and their layout. Pressing ⌥Space and entering a room name restores the windows on the current screen while hiding or parking unrelated windows; rooms can also be assigned direct keyboard shortcuts. It offers Focus, Columns, Grid, custom grid, and Stack layouts, measures application minimum sizes, and remembers separate arrangements for laptop and external displays. Rooms stores room and parked-window data locally on the Mac and makes no network connections. It requires Accessibility permission, supports macOS 14 or later on Apple Silicon and Intel, and is distributed under the MIT license.
