Show HN: Waffle – Native macOS terminal that auto-tiles sessions into a grid

olleeolleeollee — Sat, 11 Apr 2026 13:40:20 +0000

Hi HN. I built Waffle because I kept ending up with 15 terminal windows scattered across three spaces with no idea what was running where.

Splitting/merging in iTerm kind of works but it never felt intuitive to me.

With that in mind, I built something to suit my workflow:

Waffle is a native macOS terminal (Built on Miguel de Icaza's SwiftTerm) that tiles your sessions into an auto-scaling grid automatically. 1 session is fullscreen, 2 is side by side, 4 is 2x2, 9 is 3x3. Open a terminal, it joins the grid. Close one, the grid rebalances. No splitting, no config.

I've been using it a lot recently and one thing I've found really useful is that sessions detect which repo they're in and group accordingly. Each project gets a distinct colour. Cmd+[ and Cmd+] flip between groups. If you have three repos open across eight terminals, you can filter to just one project's sessions instantly. Also, no accidentally closing a window with CMD-W as it gives you a confirmation and requires a second CMD-W to close.

Honestly, if you live in tmux, this probably isn't for you but it's really helped to speed up my workflow.

Other things: It comes with a handful of themes (and has support for iTerm themes), bundled JetBrains mono, has keyboard shortcuts for everything. Free, no account, opt-in analytics only. macOS 14+.

There's a demo on the landing page if you want to see it in action.

Show HN: Lovinghate – Share what you love and hate

goshua — Sat, 11 Apr 2026 13:19:42 +0000

I saw that one Tom Cruise interview where he’s ranting about psychology and I hated the guy so much I figured there had to be other people who felt the same way. I even bought the domain name and started planning how to build the app, but then the Hater app actually launched and I thought I'd missed my chance, so I put the idea away. That was 10 years ago, today I finally launched Lovinghate to share what you love and hate.
