    A highly customizable macOS status bar replacement

  • Over the last few years I have tried to increase my productivity on a 14" screen as much as possible. The most important thing for me was to rely on keyboard shortcuts as much as possible (skhd), use a tiling window manager (yabai) and a custom status bar (SketchyBar). My full setup is explained in detail in my dotfiles. Let's discuss about further maximizing productivity and about further applications, like Alfred.
