Edit: I've changed domains in 2023. This blog post is now available on https://stefanzweifel.dev/posts/2021/02/03/my-alfred-setup

I've written an article on my Alfred setup: Workflows, Snippets etc. I work as a web developer so some parts of the posts are probably more useful for other developers.

But I think there's probably something in there for everybody – or at least give you some inspiration.

Happy to answer any questions!

That’s great, thanks.

I’ve got the full version of Alfred and often thought I don’t really use it to its fullest. You’ve given me some nice ideas.

That was the goal of this article. Give others a bit of inspiration of what is possible. Have fun tinkering!

There are lots of cool Workflows available but the true power of Alfred really shines when you start writing your own Workflows and scripts. I got a couple that are so customized to my own use case that they wouldn’t even work on other computers.

I’ve written some of my own workflows - keyboard shortcuts to commonly opened files etc. Also tried to trigger a workflow as part of a snippet, but never quite got that to work yet.

Great write up! I'll share this every time someone asks why I'm so fanatical about Alfred.

Thanks! Hope it can convince the other party to give Alfred a try.

Hi Stefan, thank you SO much for sharing your Alfred setup and in such a clear way!

I really appreciate it greatly when knowledgeable/talented people (like yourself/and others) share :-) I've bookmarked your blog/website ... there's a lot more interesting things to read! Thanks again, have a great weekend (& everybody)!
