Cinch brings the window management of Windows 7 to the Mac with a simple and easy to use application. If you prefer to use the mouse instead of the keyboard, you could use Cinch. It allows you to drag any window to the left or right side of the screen to make it fill that half of the screen. Check it out! Yet another tool suggestion: ShiftIt. Free, actively under development, completely open source, lightweight, very easy to use, and keeps a low profile in the top menu bar.
The scripts first try to tell the application to change the bounds property and then tell System Events to change the position and size properties. Using System Events or the accessibility API works with more applications, but it can also appear a bit glitchy because the position and size are not changed at the same time.
Other applications like Slate always use accessibility API. Apple has leveled up the native window manager settings and functionality and many people don't take full advantage of or know about the new implementations of mission control, side by side split view and full screen mode.

I have used BetterTouchTool for a long time, but found it sometimes needed to be restarted because it stops working. Clicking the scroll wheel button maximizes a window. If anyone is using a similar mouse maybe this is good info; Divvy is a great application either way. Try using El Capitain's split screen mode.
