Tools to achieve a 10x developer workflow on Windows
The two biggest tiling window manager projects for Windows are komorebi and GlazeWM. Komorebi is probably faster and more resource efficient since it is written in Rust, but I stick with Glaze for now since it has a cool status bar built in I like.

Launchy and related apps--again
There's a newly created and maintained LaunchyQt which works very well, nice and stable. I tried Listary for a while--very fast at both finding and indexing, but didn't play as well with scripts as Launchy did and needed to be installed, making it difficult to use in locked down work environments. Like Launchy, Listary had a prolonged period of not being maintained, but I am delighted to see a new version was uploaded just a couple of months ago. I may give it a try again.
