ControlPlane VS raycast-switch-mac-config

If you're a developer who uses multiple browsers to keep your personal and work environments separate, you know how frustrating it can be to constantly switch between default browsers and different application shortcuts.

I'm using BetterTouchTool to quickly open my most-used applications (browser, IDE, Postman, LogSeq...). I've been using ControlPlane (https://github.com/dustinrue/ControlPlane) for some time to switch my default browser, but I've now perfected my setup using Raycast, Finicky and BetterTouchTool.

I'm sharing a basic Raycast extension written that allows you to quickly switch your default browser and application shortcuts via BetterTouchTool and Finicky.

The shared code is not intended to be used as it, rather to be cloned and customized to fit your own needs and your own config.

I'm always eager to learn ways of improving my efficiency on my Mac, so please share what you've setup on your end

It's ancient and I can't recommend it for any production tasks, but Imma still mention ControlPlane. Great for triggering all sorts of actions based on time of day, attached peripherals, (B)SSID, etc.

FWIW When I used to go to the office (back in the before time) I used an app called ControlPlane to do that sort of thing.

(I actually don't switch between them most of the time, as I've set up Control Plane to run little Applescripts that change the workspace when my external monitor shows up/vanishes. It was a little fiddly to set up but well worth it.)

It probably does, I personally use ControlPlane, hasn't been updated in a while but it still works pretty well for me, free and open-source.
