Dash for macOS Reviews

   One of my favourite productivity tools as a software developer

   Once you get use to it, you won't be able to imagine your life without Dash. It will save you a bit of time every day. Many times.

   As a bonus you can use the "snippets" feature as a generic text-expander. That saves me tons of time when writing emails, too.

   p.s. aText is not exactly a direct competitor; however, I replaced it through the snippets feature of Dash.

• DevDocs

  This is awesome!! I use something similar on MacOS but it's a native app with offline support. The offline support is a neat feature but honestly these days if the internet is down I just don't do any development work... - https://kapeli.com/dash. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• DevDocs

  Not a complete answer, but I hope Markdown is or becomes the standard for offline docs and text for local/offline consumption. I only ever write in markdown anyway (usually with http://obsidian.md). The closest thing I know of for a service like RSS to download documents is [Dash for macOS - API Documentation Browser, Snippet Manager - Kapeli](https://kapeli.com/dash). - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• At Least Skim The Manual

  There are so many great sources of information out there and tools to improve the developer experience of documentation. Dash can make some of these online resources local for instant search and access on-the-go, if you prefer. - Source: dev.to / 6 months ago

• Show HN: I automated 1/2 of my typing

  Https://kapeli.com/dash Somewhat similar tool to Autokey for MacOS that I use as a text expander. Allows for great customization - appending ; to a phrase ensures you don't accidentally expand a keystroke into a phrase/URL/etc ";url" expands into "whatever string you configure". - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago

• Custom Instructions for ChatGPT

  This reminded me that I needed to settle on a good system-wide Snippets manager for MacOS. Having waded through the morass of buggy and subscription-only services many times in the past, I thought to give the open-source Espanso another go, but its last commit was many months ago and I simply could not get it to recognise Ventura permissions. It was then that I remembered that the excellent Dash... - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

• Microsoft CTO: "Thoughts on OpenAI" (2019)

  > I don't know a single techie person who uses Windows (other than for gaming) I'd say that Windows actually has some nice software, like MobaXTerm: https://mobaxterm.mobatek.net/ which in my eyes is better than Remmina or pretty much anything I've found on nix, short of just running the same thing on Wine. WinSCP is also pretty cool, albeit nothing particularly special: https://winscp.net/eng/index.php PowerToys... - Source: Hacker News / 16 days ago

• Hard disk LEDs and noisy machines

  For working with remote machines that I need to ssh into I've found mobaXTerm[1] to be a very useful terminal emulator. It has an optional remote monitoring feature that shows the usual stats as a small bar under the active terminal window. It's a windows only application though.

• Day 1 - Get to know your server

  There are various SSH clients available for Windows (PuTTY, Solar-PuTTY, MobaXterm, Termius, etc) but if you use Windows versions older than 10, the installation of PuTTY is suggested. Source: 6 months ago

• What old, outdated apps you still use on Windows and find useful.

  Everything - find files by name fast (using the ntfs journal, so strange this is not in windows itself) SpaceMonger old free version - show visually what takes the most space on the HD MobaXterm not outdated - the best SSH terminal. Source: 9 months ago

• Alternative to WinSCP & Posh-SSH that isn't OSS

  I don't see anyone recommending mobaxterm. You should check it out. Https://mobaxterm.mobatek.net/. Source: 11 months ago
