Super fast switcher, that works out of the box, allowing switching using minimal keypresses by using fuzzy searching. Wish it was an app launcher as well.

What is Contexts?

Contexts is built for speed. The interface always responds instantly so you can always remain in flow. Applications without windows are also listed. Because you should never have to think about whether an app has an open window or not.

Do you use multiple displays? You can get a sidebar on each one of them. And the panel can be set to show up on the current active display.

With the panel, you can quickly close (Cmd+w) and minimise (Cmd+m) multiple windows or quit (Cmd+q) and hide (Cmd+h) multiple apps. Set or clean up your workspace in just a few seconds.
