A macOS window snapper that only splits the screen.

Waridake (割り竹) means "split bamboo" — one clean cut, nothing else.

What it does

  1. 01 You define zones for each display
  2. 02 Hold Shift while dragging a window and the zones appear
  3. 03 Release over a zone and the window snaps into it
Zones, a drag with Shift held, and the window snapped in
Zones, a drag with Shift held, and the window snapped in

Layouts are kept per display, because screens differ in shape and size and one split never suits all of them. Displays are identified by their UUID, so settings survive unplugging and reboots.
