Try searching for "docking layout" with a dash of "Visual Studio" (the drop target hints presented by the original, non-Code version are quite good at letting the user figure out exactly where the dragged window will attach).

One example is https://github.com/node-projects/dock-spawn-ts , but there are many more. Maybe you can also tease out the layout logic from VS Code or Theia (or even better, someone else might have done the work).

Cool, thanks! It makes sense that VS Code would have this down already.
