# glazewm vs cua

glazewm and cua share 7 technologies: Tokio, objc2-app-kit, objc2-foundation, image, tracing, tracing-subscriber, and tracing-appender. Both are written in Rust.

- [glzr-io/glazewm](https://seerepo.com/r/glzr-io/glazewm): GlazeWM is a tiling window manager for macOS and Windows inspired by i3wm.
- [trycua/cua](https://seerepo.com/r/trycua/cua): Scale computer-use 2.0 with open-source drivers, cross-OS sandboxes, and benchmarks for training, evaluation, and data generation.
