Your keyboard is the fastest input device you own. So why aren’t you using it to control your whole system?
Here’s a 2025-ready setup using Assignee.
What You’ll Need
- Assignee installed
- A mapped shortcut to each essential tool
- Consistent naming for window organization
Suggested Map
- A → Slack
- S, 1 → VSCode (Project A)
- S, 2 → VSCode (Project B)
- D → Notion
- F → Terminal
- G → Preview
Bonus Tips
- Reorder window shortcuts using Assignee’s simple interface
- Use separate windows for separate mental contexts
Final Thought
Minimal setup. Max control. This is what keyboard-native productivity looks like in 2025.
