Sol: Open-source Alfred/Raycast alternative for macOS

1. sol

   1 11 2,207 9.6 TypeScript

   MacOS launcher & command palette

   

   Sol is nice and then again it seems young and a bit lacking.

   File search https://github.com/ospfranco/sol/issues/45 or opening files / apps in finder is not yet possible.

   Did not understand how to alter search engine.

   Window manager does not allow to use screen quarters.

   Clearly this has huge potential. Maybe more developers will join the effort.

   Good to see something like this, don't forget there is already an open source alternative (pre-existing) for Alfred and Raycast. It's called Quicksilver - https://qsapp.com

   Yosemite style Quicksilver plugin (Dark version)

   Staggeringly powerful macOS desktop automation with Lua

   

   I use Hammerspoon

   What makes it particularly useful is the breadth of coverage of functionality of the API and integration with OS features.

   Keystroke launcher and personal command central. Alternative to Spotlight and Alfred for Windows. Alternative to Wox, PowerToys. (by dkgv)

   

   I shared the exact same sentiment when I transitioned to Windows after a long period of only using macOS. I eventually began building a launcher myself using C# and over time it has become my daily driver. Feel free to check it out at https://github.com/dkgv/pinpoint, PRs welcome :-)

   A few other nice candidates I found include:

   - Keypirinha: https://keypirinha.com/

   - Wox: https://github.com/Wox-launcher/Wox

   - ueli: https://github.com/oliverschwendener/ueli
