Muzzle

Two more little utilities that I cannot live without on Mac: A tiling window manager like https://rectangleapp.com/ Muzzle, which automatically silences desktop notifs when you're screensharing https://muzzleapp.com/.

HazeOver

A few more that I recommend: Bartender, to control visual clutter: https://www.macbartender.com/ HazeOver, to dim distracting background stuff: https://hazeover.com/ Raycast, which does a bunch of stuff (launcher, window manager, menu search, etc.): <a href="https://www.raycast.com/">https://www.raycast.com/</a>.

Maccy

My favourite discovery for 2023 was https://maccy.app/ which provides a Windows-style clipboard history. It covers off one of the few things I love from Windows.

TechniCalc

For anyone looking for a scientific calculator, I've been building TechniCalc since 2015 (although it was called SciLine back then). It features a visual equation editor; advanced maths features like imaginary numbers, matrices, and summations; and a unit converter and unit-based maths (e.g. 1 meter + 3 yards). It is paid, but it's one up front cost with zero subscriptions, and that purchase will also unlock it on iPad and iPhone. https://jacobdoescode.com/technicalc Happy to answer any questions!
