Layout - a Mac app that switches your whole dev setup between projects with one shortcut

Hi, I'm Emanuel, a solo dev from Quebec. This is Layout, a Mac app I built for myself and now sell. I usually have 3 or 4 projects open at once. Each one has an editor, a couple of terminals, browser tabs, sometimes the iOS Simulator, and a Claude or Codex chat. macOS has no idea which window belongs to which project, so my day was a lot of ⌘Tab. Coding agents made it worse: one would finish or ask for a permission in another project, and I'd go hunting for its window. In La

痛点：macOS 无法按项目组织窗口，多项目并行开发时要在编辑器、终端、浏览器、模拟器和 AI 编码代理窗口之间反复 ⌘Tab 切换，编码代理在别的项目里请求权限或完成任务时更难定位。

目标用户：同时维护 3-4 个项目的 Mac 开发者，尤其是重度使用 Claude Code / Codex 等编码代理的人。

变现：一次性买断或年订阅的 Mac 桌面应用（可提供 7-14 天试用）；面向 AI 编码代理用户的 Pro 版加价（代理会话通知、tmux 集成、多键盘配置文件）。

MVP：用 Swift + AppKit/Accessibility API 做一个最小版：保存当前窗口布局为「项目工作区」，用全局快捷键（⌃⌥1/2/3）一键切回并把其他窗口移出视野；先不做 Space 切换、不做代理集成，2 周内可交付并挂 Gumroad/Paddle 收费。

竞品：Moom、Rectangle、Contexts、Hammerspoon、Raycast Window Management、Workspaces (Mac)

摘要：一位魁北克独立开发者发布并正在售卖 Mac 应用 Layout，用 ⌃⌥1/2/3 把每个项目的编辑器、终端、浏览器、模拟器和 Claude/Codex 会话当作工作区一键切换。痛点来自他同时开 3-4 个项目、编码代理让 ⌘Tab 混乱加剧的真实日常，是已被自建并商业化验证的需求。技术上用 Swift + SwiftUI + AppKit/Accessibility API 实现，不依赖 Spaces，单人可做，但同类窗口管理竞品较多，差异化在于 AI 编码代理会话的联动。
