The Problem: Too Many Tools, Too Many Tabs
Working on multiple projects often means endless context switching:
- Opening your code editor and digging for the right project files.
- Jumping into a client’s task manager to check tasks and deadlines.
- Searching across different websites for icons, design assets, or documentation.
- Logging into Gmail and Twitter DMs across several accounts.
- Running project-specific terminal commands for builds and deployments.
When everything is scattered, productivity drops. You waste time switching between tools instead of focusing on your actual work.
The Solution: Organize Everything in One App
That’s where Freeter comes in. It’s a free, open-source productivity tool that lets you:
- Collect everything you need for each project in one place.
- Create custom workflows for development, messaging, releases, and more.
- Switch between projects instantly — without losing your flow.
- Reduce tab clutter and repetitive clicks.
Let’s break it down with three real examples of Freeter workflows that can save you hours every week.
Workflow #1: App / Website Development
Imagine this: you open one workflow screen, and everything you need to start coding is right there:
- A task manager, embedded directly into the screen.
- One-click openers for your project files and mockups.
- Built-in search for MDN, Node.js docs, and your favorite icon websites.
- A notes widget for quick ideas.
- One-click links to your repo, bug reports, and feature requests.
You don’t waste time jumping around. You just switch into “dev mode” instantly.
Workflow #2: Email & Twitter DMs
If you manage multiple accounts, you know the pain of logging in and out just to check messages.
With Freeter, you can:
- Embed Gmail and Twitter DMs directly into one workflow.
- Use project-specific sessions, so each workflow stays logged into the right account automatically.
No more hassle of switching accounts or browsers — just open your Messages workflow, and you’re ready to reply.
Workflow #3: New App Release
Releasing a new version used to mean juggling multiple tools. Now, you can handle it in one place:
- Release → Execute build scripts directly from Freeter.
- Open Releases → Jump straight to the releases page in your browser.
- Planned Features → Update the Freeter community post with ease.
- Tasks → Review completed work without leaving your workflow.
- Release Steps → Follow a checklist so nothing gets overlooked.
Five widgets. One screen. Zero stress.
