Engineered for Seamless Context Switching

Built with Go and the native Win32 API to deliver absolute control and blindingly fast execution speeds.

Workspace Profiles

Create dedicated environment profiles with specific ordered steps. Design cleanup/teardown commands to run when switching out of contexts safely.

Win32 Window Snapping

Utilizes native Windows API calls to position and resize application windows across your grid layout. Features coordinate awareness for perfect alignment.

Global Hotkeys

Bind custom keyboard shortcuts (e.g., Ctrl+Alt+A) directly to your profiles. Toggle environments globally in any active context.

Docker Integration

Detect docker container status instantly. Launch database service files or down compose networks automatically during launch-teardown sequences.

Multi-Monitor Support

Full support for multi-display workspaces. Set DPI settings so application windows scale correctly whether on 1080p, 4K, or ultra-wide setups.

Real-Time Engine Logs

An integrated, live-updating terminal logs console streams Go core events as they execute, providing complete transparency for troubleshooting.

System Architecture

An overview of how Wails UI, Go Core micro-modules, and Windows APIs collaborate to orchestrate environments.

Native System Hooks

EasyContextSwitch runs completely locally on your system, avoiding external API dependencies or cloud servers. By linking directly to native Windows API libraries, it maintains high speed and high security.

1

Wails IPC Bridge

The sleek HTML frontend communicates with the Go Core Engine via secure, low-latency JSON-RPC channels.

2

Concurrent Polling Loops

Launches software commands and immediately sets up thread-safe loop workers to wait for window handles (HWND) to spawn.

3

Win32 API Snapping Calls

Invokes EnumWindows, filters targets by PID and scales layout boundaries safely according to physical screen resolutions.

Workspace Schema Explorer

EasyContextSwitch workspaces are defined as readable, portable JSON files. Explore the data structures representing an environment.

1

Metadata and Hotkeys

Defines the identity of your workspace profile and hooks custom system-wide trigger keys directly so you can switch instantly.

2

Sequenced Steps

Determine process execution hierarchies. Wait for complex scripts or configurations (e.g. Docker initialization) to resolve before executing layouts.

3

Precision Layout Rules

Target running tasks by title match expressions. Anchor coordinates dynamically matching monitor widths, heights and custom parameters.
