1 About Raycast

Raycast is like OS X’s Spotlight feature, but on steroids. It allows you to create custom scripts, install extensions (or create your own), run widgets, search files and apps, and all the other stuff you’d expect from Spotlight.

2 Extensions I’ve Made

With Raycast you can either install custom extensions locally, or publish them to the store to make them available for everyone to use.

2.1 RepoRay - A Repo Manager

The reason I installed Raycast in the first place was because I wanted a Rofi-like tool on macOS. I wanted to create a tool that I could use to quickly open any of my local git repos from anywhere. This became RepoRay. It allows me to open a repo in any editor, remove local repos, or clone new ones.

3 Contributions

3.1 Todo List - Fixed windows bug

One of my first contributions to any public repo - a tiny one-line bugfix that affected Raycast users on Windows using the Todo List extension. Hopefully I made these 3 people’s lives much better :P
