For those on macOS this can be set in system preferences -> keyboard -> shortcuts -> mission control.
I highly recommend using multiple desktops with dedicated hotkeys over alt+tab to switch between applications. Much much faster to press fn+cmd+<h, j , k, l> and immediately bring up the application you want than to tab until you find the application you are looking for.
I agree with the grandparent poster that the Windows situation is very bad compared to something like i3.
