Tried out default Calendar app, it really sucks. Important features I need quick switching between folders, starring emails for later, advanced search options.ĭefault Mail app might be worth trying out although it lacks many features.ĮM Client looks less great but is interesting because it also offers calendar and a contacts app. There is SimpleNote EmailĪirmail is nearly perfect for me on Mac.

Notesįor Bear which I use for larger note taking I need to find an alternative. The default solution doesn't appear to properly work with disk encryption ( source). It's cheap, but there are other good cloud backup services like Acronis True Image or IDrive.įor full disk backups there is Macrium Reflect or Acronis. Alternatives to research are Dashlane and Enpass. 1PasswordġPassword also works on Windows. Webdev on Windows with WSL and VS Code. TerminalĬreate a shortcut on bash to get to my projects folder easily. WinSCP or Cyberduck are interesting ones but both very ugly. Could also try GitHub Desktop and SourceTree (on Mac I hated SourceTree though due to super-ugly UI). Turning Windows into an environment ready for modern development Git clientįork also works on Windows. To remap the caps lock key to the application launcher I could use Auto Hot Key Developer tools

There is also Listary, Cerebro, keypirinha, Hain, Zazu App.įeatures I need: app launching, file searching, calculator, clipboard history, open specific folders with an app from a list. Of course there will be nothing like Alfred. I wonder if the default media player is acceptable now, maybe after installing some codec packs? Application launcher There is MPC-HC, MPC-BE, PotPlayer, GOM Player.

I'd love one that actually has a clean interface but that doesn't seem possible in Windows land. What tool is best to open PDFs and things like pictures? I want something like Preview.app from macOS and be able to do quick modifications like image crop, add text or arrows. What to do with screen casting? Opening misc things Need to try PicPick too, it can do screenshooting but also nice design things like a color picker. Also need to try the default snipping tool. To take screenshots easily like on macOS there is Lightshot, but maybe there are better ones. I need to find a quick way to access the downloads/screenshots folder like on macOS from the dock, preferably without opening the Explorer.īest unzip/extract tool? I guess 7zip? Screenshots and casts Make sure to install this first since you can install almost all apps below with it! File exploring
