Need: Keyboard shortcuts and window-size management for MacOs
Other programs I’ve tried: Alfred, Karabiner
I set up BTT on every Mac as the very first software I install. I basically don’t know how to use a Mac without shortcuts than I can use to resize windows to the left or right half of the screen, or full-screen them on the next monitor. Doing that with BTT has always been a super painless experience.
More recently I’ve also used BTT for more advanced keyboard shortcut creation, like a keyboard shortcut that brings up our internal analytics page, or pastes my current clipboard into my Roam daily notes. It also has great screenshot-editing tools that are built in, as well as a clipboard manager, which are the other two pieces of software I would otherwise need to install separately.
hammerspoon, phoenix.js are opensource alternatives that are more powerful and lightweight in their niches. (BTT still has more breadth and ease of use.)
