Hey, Product Hunt!
I created Apptivate back in 2010 when I needed a small and simple app for launching applications and running scripts using hotkeys. There were other similar applications at the time, but either they only launched applications or they were too bloated, so I decided to write my own app.
The development on Apptivate has stagnated since I don't have as much free-time as I used to (and since there are no critical issues), but I do make some progress on the entirely rewritten Apptivate 3.0 now and then. Since I use Apptivate every day myself, I'm quite motivated to keep the app alive.
If you have any questions about Apptivate, let me know here or on Twitter (@boerworz or @apptivateapp)!
Cheers,
Tim
