About WindowTop
WindowTop adds window controls that Windows lacks. It can keep any window always on top with an optional colored border, change a window's opacity and make it click-through, and shrink a window into an interactive, croppable picture-in-picture view that floats above other work.
It also offers a dark mode for applications and Anchors for switching between windows quickly. The basic version is free, and advanced features require the Pro version.
