You can quickly maximize a window by simply dragging it to the top of the screen or double clicking on its border at the top.

Double clicking on the window will restore it to the original size.

To move a window to a different monitor, even if maximized, you can simply drag it to the other monitor. You don’t need to make it smaller first.

If you want to minimize the entire one particular window, have that be the active window and just shake it with the mouse. Your other windows will be minimized. Shake it again and they will return to the size and location they were before.
