DockFlip

Welcome to the DockFlip wiki

DockFlip brings the best bits of Windows to your Mac in one small, free, open-source app:

  • Window lists in the Dock. Hover an icon to see its windows, with browser tabs listed under each one.
  • A Flip 3D ⌘Tab that switches between windows rather than apps.
  • Snapping with ⌃⌥ as your Win key, or by dragging a window to an edge.

The philosophy, in one paragraph

Take what Windows got right. Leave the rest where it was. Don't add a setting when a good default will do. Never poll, never phone home, never log what's in your windows. If it doesn't work every time, it doesn't ship.
