## What Jamie wrote

Window managers are surprisingly complicated things to get right, and filled with a ton of personal preference. I tried Stage Manager for a bit, but found it too heavy handed. Or maybe it was just too big of a change. I'll give it another go with the new version. While Apple didn’t reference Stage Manager in visionOS, it sure seemed like the windows in the demos were placed in ways that were inspired by Stage Manager.
