Alternatives

Before building my own app, I looked around at similar apps. However, none was completely satisfactory so I rolled my own. Also, the almost-good-enough apps are not open-source.

Alternative	Differences
HyperSwitch and HyperDock	Closed-source. Thumbnails are too small. App icon is on top of the thumbnail
WindowSwitcher	7$. Thumbnails are small and blurry. App icon is on top of the thumbnail
Switch	Open Source. Thumbnails are small. Very little customization. Latest release is from 2016
Witch and Context	10-15$. Closed-source. Focus on text. No thumbnails
Built-in MissionControl	No keyboard support
`⌘ command` + `⇥ tab`	Only shows apps, not windows (note: can press down to see window of selected app)
`⌘ command` + `	Cycles through tabs and windows, but only of the same app. Only cycling, no direct access
