Hey PH! I'm a Product Designer & iOS Developer and I built Rocket after my experience using the Touch Bar for a few days. I really wanted a way to be more productive from the Touch Bar in a way that wasn't strictly app contextual.
Rocket allows you to access your open applications and your full macOS dock via the Touch Bar.
Being able to fast switch to the exact app with one tap has been really convenient. Not having a dock present on screen and being able to go fullscreen on everything has also been awesome!
Just launched in beta and I have a bunch of great ideas planned & in development to further enhance productivity via Touch Bar and Rocket (customizable folder shortcuts, minimize all windows, quit applications, etc.) so stay tuned!
Let me know if you have any questions or thoughts. Thanks!
@julianthayn this is just amazing! I was wondering wether you know how to pin it to the control strip like the touch switcher app. At least maybe an option for this. It truly is very useful! Also a way to make it default to the dock.
@julianthayn Could you partner with Andreas Hegenberg (https://www.boastr.net)? He has developed better touch tool. One of the most useful apps ever made for Mac! Hoping for that to have amazing touchbar tweaks too!

@julianthayn@pallav_agarwal You can not pin it, any touchbar app, you have to keep the app running and it will show up on the far left of the minimized commands.

If this can sort of replace the dock, that would be amazing, I think thats the real value here. About to give it a try.

Maybe I am doing something wrong, but the only issue is the issue that matters the most. The app disappears from the little-concealed menu on the right-hand side. https://www.producthunt.com/post... and https://www.producthunt.com/post... are two apps that hold their place in the menu making the app always accessible. Any fixes?
