Since I managed to get used with this app I can't imagine a day of work without it. Incredible powerful and easy to use / configure.
rcmd is something that could potentially turbocharge your productivity. However! you will need to get used to using it.
My only issue is that I forget about it ¯_(ツ)_/¯

One less known use case for this is creating animated UI demos, which as a dev I find harder to do using video editing software. I used it to create the simple demo on the rcmd frontpage: https://lowtechguys.com/rcmd This is the code, where I'm just animating elements of an SVG I previously created with Sketch: https://github.com/FuzzyIdeas/lowtechguys/blob/main/src/rcmd/index.plim#L211-L379 But because Lunar's... - Source: Hacker News / 12 months ago
Also check out my rcmd app (https://lowtechguys.com/rcmd) for more keyboard centric workflows. It’s definitely not as powerful as Witch for windows/tabs but rcmd’s one-key approach is instant for app switching.

I've found rcmd quite useful for window switching. It lets you use the right command key plus another key to switch applications. Right command + s for Safari, for example.

Back when I was an edgy teenager I tried every Windows desktop shell replacement available. My favorites were LiteStep and Emerge Desktop.

Hyper-V Server 2019 gets my vote, with the Cairo Desktop it's a near unbeatable setup. Add the FoD pack, browser of your choice, Windows Admin Center for local management of the entire system including virtualized guests. It's a very robust enterprise grade server that requires NO LICENSE and ends up having a very nice GUI for a core server. Source: over 2 years ago
