    That hotkey is very cool to have, no questions asked but i was already using omni which does the same thing so i couldn't see the appeal to switch to it just because of that.

    Try Omni instead of Untab, from the same author as later and a much better UI/UX!

    Omni - This is technically not an app - it's a Chrome extension; basically gives you the equivalent of Spotlight within Chrome, allowing you to do a bunch of things without ever having to touch the trackpad
  • Ask HN: Show us your low-tech/simple stack side projects
    4 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 11 Jan 2022
    Most of my projects are fairly simple stack (either plain Javascript or with jQuery, using Firebase as a DB if necessary), but I tend to build relatively complex WebApps with it (e.g. a collaborative map editor, audio editor, motion graphics editor, animated mockup maker...).

    The simplest product I've ever built in terms of code (fewest lines of code, no dependencies besides jQuery) is Omni, which is an extension that adds an omnisearch to your browser to manage tabs, bookmarks, history, perform multiple actions, add shortcuts, commands...

    It's basically just an array of available actions with a simple UI to search through them and select them. I love it because it's incredibly simple to add new actions, I've also open sourced it so anyone can easily contribute: https://github.com/alyssaxuu/omni

    I still don't know if it's going to do well or not, I am going to publicly launch it tomorrow, hopefully people find it useful despite its simplicity :P
