Great article highlighting the best apps of this summer (so far!)
Every week at Lifehacker, we highlight four different apps and browser extensions that can do something awesome for your devices: one for each platform or major browser.
“If you want another helping hand to ensure your favorite apps stay updated-or a much larger directory of user-maintained packages to pick from-consider Chocolatey. No, not the delicious sweet, nor the command line-based app installer. Well. Sort of. The Chocolatey GUI is what you’ll want to check out, because it gives you a lovely graphical interface for installing and managing your apps, which is a lot easier to handle than a lot of command-line typing.”
Transform your favorite websites into “Desktop apps:” Web2Desk. It’s a great resource if you want to know about the best-in-class Mac apps you should install on your Mac desktop or laptop right now.
“The Windows app, cleverly titled ‘QuickLook,’ is completely free. Install it, run it, and you’ll be able to preview “certain file types”—the developer doesn’t specify—by highlighting them in File Explorer and hitting the spacebar to open up a preview. (Don’t hold it down; tap it.) And tap spacebar one more time to close the preview. It’s as easy as that
“Although there are plenty of clipboard management apps that keep a record of everything you’ve copied, and Apple’s own Continuity feature lets you access the contents of your clipboard across all of your devices, Paste 2 puts these features, and more, under one roof.”
Remove every trace of unwanted apps from your Mac: CleanApp. If you want to have a Mac that’s as free from garbage and stray files as you can get, I recommend giving it a try before you install anything else from our Mac Pack.
