Yes, there are similarities, but also differences in overall design  
philosophy. TeXworks is more focused on simplicity, on giving the new  
or casual user a minimalist tool that "just works" without  
intimidating them with technicalities or options.

(This is not meant as criticism of Texmaker, which I think is a great  
tool; it's just designed for a different type of user. The same  
applies to most of the other front-ends I'm aware of, on various  
platforms.)
