Examples of the present disclosure describe systems and methods for a windowing container that enables two or more windows associated with application(s) to be grouped within the container such that the windows may behave or function uniformly as a single window. For example, responsive to a request to group two windows, a container may be generated to include the windows arranged based on one or more rules and features enabling group functions associated with the container to be performed. When a group function is performed on the container, the function may be performed to each of the windows arranged therein as if they were a single window. As new windows are grouped within or existing windows are released from the container, the container and/or windows may be rearranged based on the rules. A state of the container may be stored to enable subsequent invocation of the container after closing.
