There's dead space on both sides of the Dock. Nobody uses it. So I stuck widgets there. Music with synced lyrics (Spotify + Apple Music), calendar, weather, a Pomodoro timer, system stats. They sit in little glass panels and stay out of the way until you look down.The other thing: hover a Dock icon and macOS shows you the app name. Thanks, I forgot what Safari was called. Docktor replaces that with live thumbnails of every window for that app. Click one, you're there. Same idea powers a Cmd+Tab replacement. Actual window previews instead of a beauty pageant of app icons.I spent a lot of time matching the system look. Same blur radii, same animation timing. It should feel like part of the Doc
