Is there a Swift API that can notify when the current active/foreground window changes and provide information about the title of the foreground window, the application name, etc?

Something similar to this, but not only monitoring the current application but all running apps across the system.

There is the didActivateApplicationNotification in NSWorkspace.

A notification that the workspace posts when the Finder is about to activate an app.

However NSRunningApplication which is the object of the posted notification doesn't provide information about the active window.
