Browse Apple Developer topics
Presents a list of categories from Apple’s developer pages, then reformats the option of your choosing into the URL for that category and opens it.
Welcome to my Shortcuts Library!
Check out the collection below to get started with Shortcuts — there are over 700 total across the free and members-only collections.
All shortcuts
Browse the latest shortcuts available for free or members-only.
Free shortcuts are easier to understand, solve a simple use case, or ideas that everyone should have in their collection.
Members-only shortcuts are more complex, solve specific use cases very well, and represent my unique ideas.
In general, an entire folder of shortcuts are either all free or all members-only — except the bundle shortcuts available on each page.
Members-only shortcuts

Asks you to enter a search query, then URL encodes the result, and opens the results on the web.
Prep for session screenshots
Resizes the Apple Developer window to the second screen at my preferred size for taking screenshots, then opens Craft and centers it on the main display.
Start voice chat
Opens ChatGPT and activates the voice conversation feature, letting you talk hands-free with ChatGPT and have it respond with voice.

Starts a new continuous chat with ChatGPT-4o, where it will prompt you to start a conversation and replies until you stop responding.

Prompts you to enter a query, then asks ChatGPT your given message using GPT-4, the shows you the response after copying it to your clipboard for pasting elsewhere.
