DashPane▲97
Built this for macOS because I wanted app switching to feel faster and more flexible than the default Command-Tab flow. DashPane combines app switching and launching in one flow, with: • customizable app shortcuts • fuzzy search for apps and windows • sidebar access • edge gestures • more consistent Command-Tab behavior • appearance, menu bar, and haptics settings This is the v2 update, shipped about a month after launch. A lot of the changes came from early user feedback. Site: https://www.dashpane.pro/
