About
Worky is a macOS menu bar tool that keeps your desktop organized and clutter-free. It lets you create workspaces (groups of related files) and switch between them as needed. And when you want a distraction-free environment, Worky clears your desktop and safely stores everything for quick access later.
Nerd Notes
With worky, keeping the app state sane was a massive pain in the ass, that it almost made me give up on this one, but neveeer!!!!. Tracking workspaces, serializing/deserializing them reliably, and especially dealing with all the chaos when users mess with their folders outside the app (or while it’s closed) meant hunting down a ton of nasty edge cases and building a proper little state machine under the hood. Gotta say – I’m pretty damn proud of this bad boy ;) If you get a chance, check it out!
