From Keyboard Chaos to Shortcut Zen: A Case Study

I used to juggle:

• Raycast for launching
• Rectangle for windows
• Hammerspoon for scripts
• Karabiner for remaps
• Spotlight for search

Too much config. Too much drift.

Then I tried Assignee.

The Switch

• Ctrl + Tab became my gateway
• Assigned shortcuts for Slack, VSCode, Notion, Browser
• Mapped project windows with numbers (1 = auth-ui, 2 = docs)

The Result

• Less fatigue
• Less config
• More flow

Final Thought

Keyboard Zen is real. It starts with subtracting—not adding—tools. Assignee helped me get there.
