Linear extension is one of our faves too… 😉

A setting would be cool but i personally think the size of the window is perfect.

An extremely enthusiastic convert from Alfred here. I can't believe I didn't switch to Raycast sooner! It's AWESOME. It replaces multiple little applets I've used for years for various tasks.

😍 That "Team Time" command is fabulous. I need it.

I have to say that I have discovered Raycast, just a few weeks ago. I know I have been leaving under a rock, but at the same time, I don't even know how I was able to work until Raycast. You guys have developed by far the most "HAVE TO USE APP" ever for mac users. I cannot thank you enough.

This series is really great. It has taught me so many tricks and boosted my productivity. Can't wait for the Wes Bos episode!

I loved that camera preview is so nice, would definitely use before going into meetings. Also would love to show the Raycast community on how I use Raycast on daily basis, extensions, and some of the scripts I wrote over the years. ✌

the size of the raycast window is perfect, please don't change! Great video, very interesting to see the sneak peak on references on AI

I actually want the Raycast window to be bigger. I think it's would be very nice to have window size settings in Raycast. 👍

A window size settings option would be great. I personally would love it bigger. That way different people can have their desired preference. Great video. I really appreciated the window -+ suggestion.

Always great! Love these!

As many others mentioned the window size is perfect and is just the right size to get enough context at a glance while not taking up too much of my existing workspace. One note is I only use compact mode and that has also been perfect!

This is super dope... Added a few things that he uses. Need more content like this.

On the mention of Mechanical Keyboards; It would be fantastic if Raycast could incorporate the feature of viewing QMK or VIA configs. Often, I find myself uncertain about macros or keys that are nested in different layers. Having the ability to quickly access and review my layers and keys through Raycast would be truly remarkable!

Hi! Great video! Also loved the key stroke casting on the screen, what did you use to do that?

Thank you! We actually add the keystrokes manually in post, so that we can highlight only the meaningful ones and keep them on screen for however long makes sense ☺️

a size setting would be nice. I'd make it smaller since I mostly use my mac's display. Kind of like a more compact packing of stuff.

Awesome. Would love to use that Team Time command!

Here's a template to build your own: www.raycast.com/templates/team-time

How can I replicate the "extensions assistant" meaning can I have a shortcut that will take a selected text and input a standard prompt with instructions ?

The window size is fine, but it would be convenient to resize it using window management shortcuts. Additionally, having the option to move the window around with the keyboard would be great. I often find myself dragging the window unnecessarily just to view something behind it.

the size of raycast is perfect imo

I like the Window size, on my MacBook Air screen and when I’m hooked up to a bigger screen.

Regarding the Raycast window size he´s talking about at around 12:00 I think an setting would be great, how many lines you want to be shown.

I'm a paid member, and the best feature is assigning roles to AI. I use this every day, but I wish there were fewer steps to choose the role that I want to use. Currently, you call Raycast, type "ai chat," and if the previous chat is old, Raycast will create a new chat. If not, Raycast will prompt you with the previous role. Now, I switch between code assistance, writer, and some internal roles, and having to switch back and forth takes time. What if you call a new action, like "ai role dashboard," where you have a window with, let's say, six chat sections, and each section has a different role? I think this will be great!!!

"Open Camera" → see yourself 😁 Maybe with a few extra options, such as "Take photo", filters, etc.

Oké next video no hands 🙌

Just learned about Raycast. The idea seemed interesting, but now that I saw this video, I assume it adds to the complexity of my work, not subtracts from it. It's not that with Raycast I can use seven apps instead of ten, rather, it's an eleventh app to juggle those ten a bit more seamlessly.

that’s fair! you can totally use Raycast in a pretty low key way, though - like i’d been doing the past 2 years before i joined the team 😅. not everyone has to be a power user like Thomas. may i ask what’s the kind of work that you do and how you think an app like Raycast could help you better?

Just set up the Alt+[First Letter of Application] shortcuts. Nice!

I had been using Alfred for over 5 years. IMHO, Raycast is far easier to customize, moves faster and has a more active developer community than Alfred. I say that with a lot of sadness as I LOVED Alfred. I can’t go back now.

The emoji screen is too big - there is too much space between the emojis so it takes longer to scroll through them - please make more compact

Did you know you can make it more compact in the extension settings? Is the smallest setting too big for you still? 😄

"Raycast CEO admits to slacking on the job."

On the contrary, the window is too small. Especially height-wise! At least let me see 10-12 results.

Oh this is cool 🥳❤🙏🌈 EMOJI HELPERS

I find Alfred to be far more customizable than raycast

The ⌥ shortcuts at the beginning of the video hurt me. I wouldn't be able to live without using the option key for special characters - it's one of the most beautiful and elegant features of macOS, that allows easy access not only to essential diacritics like ã or ç, but also to a wide selection of correct typographical and mathematical glyphs like … and ≠. I highly recommend anyone to hold option and press all the keys to see what comes out. And then do it again with option+shift. #leaveoptionalone

Thomas here 👋 I mainly type in English or German and don't need many special characters. If I need some, I use our Emoji Picker, which includes the common Unicode symbols. Others on the team use "⌃" or "⌃ + ⌥" as modifier keys. The beauty of Raycast is that you can configure it to suit your needs.

Ok, nice to meet you. i am windos user🥲🥲
