I use a keyboard mapper (better touch tool in my case) to configure Option+Tab to switch between windows of the same app. So I am constantly using Command+Tab and Option+Tab all the time, I think I could never come back. I also did not understand what this app brings, is it a preview of those windows?
I've never actually needed to use it, but that sounds like the default can do this without taking your hands off the keyboard?

Command-` does this natively: cycle through windows of the active application. Note that on an ANSI keyboard backtick is right above Tab so it makes sense from a layout perspective.
option+ to resize window to left and right, and option+p to maximize. And also control+j and control+k to switch tabs in browsers and terminals.
Probably there are also native shortcuts for that, but I like how I can make mines consistent across all apps.
Some feedback from a mac user (if this is your project): The only description of the functionality on the page is "brings the power of Windows’s “alt-tab” window switcher to macOS." As someone that hasn't used Windows in years, this doesn't actually tell me anything. What does this do that command-tab and command-` don't already do in mac?
It's pretty customizable, so everyone's experience and preferences will be different but here are some of mine.
1. Command + Tab > Cycle all windows, within all spaces, on active screen (rather than all screens).
2. Command + ` > Same as above, but only for the focused/active application.
3. Customized size of thumbnail, font, items per row, and overall screen real estate.
4. Mouse location = active screen
5. Hidden windows show at the end of the cycle
Instant app switching with rcmd + visual window switching for multi-window apps like Xcode, Sublime Text etc.
It’s similar to what I had on Windows with WinKey+number and their integrated AltTab thumbnails but better since I don’t have to count the apps in the taskbar to know which number to press, and I can AltTab only through the current app windows if I want.

I use this in combination with my rcmd app ( https://lowtechguys.com/rcmd ) and I can finally say I’ve reached the perfect app/window switching setup on macOS.
