My window management hack that I’m surprised I’ve not seen mentioned is that in macOS you can map each numpad key to a separate desktop. You essentially get a desktop control pad free with your keyboard, since I don’t know any SWE who uses needs their numpad.

My wish is that macOS would let you group desktops together in a way that solved both of these problems:

- Switching desktops across multiple monitors at once

- Merging and splitting desktops when going from multiple monitors to one monitor

Multiple desktops are critical to my workflow and how I mentally organize my digital workspace. I wish there was more customization or more powerful features around it.
