Show HN: macOS dock pissed me off and I extended it
extradock.appHey HN!
So the other day macOS dock system pissed me off, completely.
I’m someone who runs 2 or 3 monitors daily: one for coding, one for chat apps, and one for design tools. But macOS only gives you a single Dock, which either stays on your main screen or auto-swaps wherever your mouse is. Complete hell.
I just wanted an easy way to keep a “chat dock” on my side monitor, a “development dock” on my center monitor, and maybe another “utilities dock” somewhere else—without messing with some complex, heavy, bloated dock replacement.
So I made one. And got feedback from my friends that it's good, and I should publish it. Couldn't find the one thing I wanted to see after seeing the preview images, what it actually looks like in context / on the screen(s). Thanks for the tip! Added screenshots to homepage - after features. Is that a good position? https://extradock.app/ Nice! Much better. That's a good one! I'll add this, so it's easier to "see it in action" without watching the demo right away! Thanks a lot! I know what's missing, AI :D, just kidding. Looks nice! Hhahaha! Thought the same! We'll see if AI fits into this some day! A huge value add to MacOS. Fingers crossed Apple doesn't build in the features. Honestly it would be pretty good if they did. :D I'll lose my 20 customers so far, but I think it would be a good thing.
