About:
Spaceman is a lightweight menu bar utility for macOS that provides a visual indicator of your current Space and active virtual desktops. It allows for quick navigation between spaces directly from the menu bar, eliminating the need to use Mission Control gestures or keyboard shortcuts. This tool enhances workflow efficiency for users who manage multiple desktops for different tasks or applications.
Key Features:
  • Real-time Space indicator in the menu bar
  • Click-to-switch navigation between desktops
  • Minimalist, non-intrusive user interface
  • Lightweight system resource usage
Use Cases:
  • Monitoring active workspace when using multiple virtual desktops
  • Quickly switching between development, communication, and media spaces
Alternatives:
  • Spaces – Native macOS feature lacks a persistent menu bar indicator
  • Yabai – Advanced tiling window manager with a much larger scope and complexity
