There's currently a kind of popular auto tiling script [1] but it hasn't met my expectations yet. System76's upcoming COSMIC DE has gotten a great auto tiling feature [2] for reference.

We'd rather provide the necessary infrastructure to accomplish that. We may incorporate some tiling features in kwin core in the future but kwin is still a stacking window manager, it used to be able to do proper tiling but it didn't go well (so it was removed long time ago). |
