This looks very nice - I've been looking for something like this for a future project.

#12Looks nice, and the payload is impressively small. I'd be happier if there weren't 4 separate downloads of JQuery on the demo page though

#13This is great work, but any scrollbar adjacent to a draggable divider isn't usable :(

#14Looks very good, one issue though: After maximising, I expected the "restore" like icon to get back to the state I was previously, but it seemed to pop-out instead which was very unexpected. It seems I should have chosen "minimize" looking icon instead, which doesn't minimize but instead puts back to tiled size. Also, when closing a pop-out I would expect it to re-integrate rather than closing completely, but perhaps…
Cheers. It's true, there is no "minimizing" as such, it's just a toggle between maximised and original state. Similarly the close icon does close a popout window, popping it back in can be done via the button in the bottom right
I found after a mixture of tear out and maximizing and minimizing the widgets end up half way down the page.
To reproduce (Chrome 49.0.x): Take "Fnts 100" maximize, undock, redock, meximize (repeat if needed).

#15The demos don't work on my iPad Pro...
1. Long pressing on a window title brings a smaller window under my finger and when I let go the window disappears.
2. I can maximize the window, but when I try to restore/minimize I get a new CodePen window opening.
3. On a stack, when I tap a tab, it highlights, but I can't get it to activate. Long pressing does the same as (1) and also appears to rearrange the tabs.

#16Certainly looks promising, but add your github url on the front page prominently! i had to google it to find it.

#18That's nice, but it's terrible on my iPhone.

yup, its a paradigm that doesn't translate too well to mobile - so mobile support is only rudimentary (at best)
Re: Show HN: GoldenLayout – JavaScript layout manager with multi-screen support
#20https://terminal.sexy/ is a better demo of Golden Layout's capabilities.
Very nice working example but I don't understand why they would maintain the X to close modules when it is so easy to close required functionality (like Save). Are you unable to remove the Close button and they had to add "Reset Layout" to get around it? To me most of those modules shouldn't be permitted to be closed.
