Show HN: Omnino, a windowing system for web apps, inspired by the Acme editor

While the conservative reproduction of Acme&#x27;s interaction will appeal to fans who have used the editor I guess, I think a lot of people would find the interactivity (esp. the resizers, left scrollbar) very non-intuitive in present day and age.<p>A good example of a more modern and practical tiling system for web is mosaic (<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;nomcopter.github.io&#x2F;react-mosaic&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;nomcopter.github.io&#x2F;react-mosaic&#x2F;</a>)

I noticed that windows are resizable, but only change the size on mousedown, not on mousemove while the mouse is down.<p>Is that intentional? What are the benefits?

Omnino does not implement the &quot;right-click to load&quot; functionality of Acme, as it&#x27;s meant to be a general-purpose library. However, I have implemented this functionality on my personal website and plan to open-source this code as a separate library soon.

Nice, but the browser selection when you try to move a window between columns is extremely distracting.

I&#x27;ve been looking for something like this. I was using ugly iframes. Much gratitude.
