Your Dock, Zen.
Create profiles for your macOS Dock. Switch between contexts instantly and keep your workspace perfectly organized.
The Dock doesn't scale.
By default, the macOS Dock is static. Whether you're coding, designing, or relaxing, the same icons clutter your screen. It lacks context. It lacks flow.
The DockZen Way.
Imagine a Dock that adapts to your needs. A Dock that remembers exactly where you put that folder, which separator you like, and which apps belong to your current state of mind.
