Heynote
A scratchpad for developers. Each note is a block with formatting or syntax highlighting for plain text, math, markdown or one of several programming languages. Math blocks do calculations.
Any Text
Put whatever text you want in a widget — lists, notes, or the thing you decide needs your attention.
One Thing
Put text of your choice in the menu bar as a constant reminder — an inspiration, a goal, or something that need to get done.
One Task
Focus on one task at a time by creating a list of tasks for the day. The first one will show up in a widget. Check it off when it’s done, and the next one appears.
Pulsar
The sun may have set on Atom, but a new day is dawning with Pulsar — an evolution of the highly hackable code editor.
Script Kit
Create a script to do pretty much anything your Mac is capable of — or choose one from the community — and launch it from the app.
Origami Studio
Designers can create interactive prototypes and applications, enabling them to visualize and test concepts before implementation. Panels including the Canvas for layout, the Patch Editor for adding interaction and animation, and the Layer List for organizing layers.
MacPacker
Preview your archives without extracting them. Supports zip, tar, and lz4, with more to come.
Penc
Use your trackpad to move and resize windows, or snap them into halves and quarters.
Motrix
A nice interface for heavy downloaders who need to keep organized. Supports BitTorrent and Magnet.
Tasktic
A to-do app with some interesting features: You can rank items, schedule them, put them on a timer, archive them, make them a “maybe”, and more.
Omnivore
Save articles, newsletters and documents and read them later — focused and distraction free. Add notes and highlights. Organize your reading list the way you want and sync it across all your devices.
