What are your favourite Alfred workflows?

Alfred is such a great tool if you use a Mac.

I mention some that I use here

I also have a few I wrote a while back for those interested.

I love Dash App with Alfred integration for looking up documentation fast like Sonic.

Toggle hidden files is a useful one.

Nice. I've used devdocs.io, but never really Dash. I'll check it out since it integrates with Alfred. Thanks for sharing!

Been years since I've seen such tooling.

I use this IP Address workflow a lot. It shows your local and external IP.
