Virtual workspace manager for macOS that replaces the native Spaces with instant, hotkey-driven switching
FlashSpace is a virtual workspace manager for macOS, designed to enhance and replace native macOS Spaces. It removes the waiting for macOS animations when you move between sets of apps.
You define workspaces, assign apps to them and pair each workspace with a display. When you switch to a workspace, its apps are shown and all other apps on that display are hidden. Workspaces can be switched independently on each display, which suits people who work across several monitors.
