Inspired by my experience at my day job.

Looking for testers if anyone wants to help out!

We're working on Drawers ( https://drawers.computer ), a macOS app to give each of your projects its own dock, space, and windows. We integrate with macOS spaces to switch out a project-specific dock on each space, containing only the resources you need for that project. We made it possible to add granular resources instead of full apps to the dock (think specific slack channels instead of the whole slack app), to ke…

This is an idea I had in mind since I started developing for the Mac 20(!) years ago. I obviously never even got to create a prototype, so it's cool to see someone finally implement it.
