f752d89a 3## Minimum Window Sizes of Mac Apps
3c6823f7
RBR
4
5I use tiled window managers, and some layouts work better with smaller windows, but not all mac apps can do that so this is a collection of minimum window sizes of different apps to help me find which ones are better suited for my workflow.
6
7I use the following thresholds:
8
9* <= 250 = TINY
10* > 250 and <= 400 = SMALL
11* > 400 and <= 500 = MEDIUM
12* > 500 <= 800 = LARGE
13* > 800 = HUGE
