mayonnaise Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Hi! I'm really unsure if that kind of workflow is possible and if Alfred is the right tool for it so I wanted to ask the community opinion. What I would like to do is: - Having a preset of "modes" to switch from, such as "development", "trading", "morning routine" - Activating a mode would open a set of specified apps related to it, and close any other opened apps while remembering their state (which I think is the default in most macos apps) So that I can "toggle" between different modes otherwise I have to manage so many windows and its getting out of hand. Is it possible with alfred? If it is, how to do it? Link to comment
Pearcen Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Hi, Yep can certainly be done and I do it but its also worth taking a look at https://bunchapp.co for something that will do exactly what you want, you can then trigger it from Alfred I've put together a very quick example workflow for you to play with and customise to your hearts content if you want to stick with Alfred, but I don't promise it will do things as you want. https://github.com/pearcenuk/Alfred-public/blob/main/app-launch/app-launch.alfredworkflow Also if you want to make sure windows end up in the same places take a look at https://manytricks.com/moom/ Good luck Link to comment
