Raycast: a much better spotlight alternative for Mac

Ask any mac user whats the way they love most about mac, 99% of them will say spotlight.

Spotlight is great, but Raycast is much better.

Raycast is much more than a spotlight alternative.

Raycast is a tool to keep you in flow.

It has a suite of small apps that can help you be more productive. Which includes:

  • a clipboard manager
  • a note taking app
  • a pomodoro timer
  • a calculator
  • a unit converter
  • a weather app
  • a currency converter

all acessible via a single keystroke.

Here is a video that shows some of the features:

I've been using it for a few months now and I love it.

Give it a try, you won't regret it.

I love it because of its extensibile nature, I have some small tools that I have made for myself. Some of them are:

  • a tool to open my working project in includes
  • a tool which add/appends my thoughts to my notion daily page
  • a tool to open CONSUMABLES (digital products) in my browser

I'll be sharing some of them in future posts.
