Search engines for Butler

During development, you constantly need to search for stuff on the web, but previously you had to:

  • Open the reference browser
  • Open a new tab
  • Type your query

Now, you can quickly and easily do this from Butler 🥳

The search options will appear when there are no other matches found in $butler$. If there's still a match but you want to search for something you can add a space after your query.

Soon, we'll add keywords to Butler so you'll be able to trigger the searches by typing in a keyword (for example: g styled-components for searching google)

By default, you can search Google, npm, Stack Overflow, and GitHub, but you can customize the built-in search engines, remove them, and add new ones by going to Settings -> Butler -> Search Engines .

Note: The URLs must contain {{search}} for the search engine to be valid, for example: https://github.com/search?q={{search}}

 

New Butler action: Activate project and open in editor

When you want to start working on another project, until now you had to run 2 commands:

  • Activate project in Sizzy
  • Open in Editor

Now, there is a new action in $butler$ that will allow you to do both of them at the same time: Activate the chosen project and open it in your code editor.

Hopefully, this will save you a lot of time and make project switching less tedious!

 

Using Reference Browser, Todos, Notes, and Bookmarks without a project

If you haven't used Sizzy Projects before, you'll be surprised to see these new icons in the URL bar.

Now we allow you to use the following features even if you don't use Projects in Sizzy:

  • Reference browser (a browser within Sizzy that you can use for quickly searching something, referencing documentation, looking at your design, etc.)
  • Todos: Use todos within Sizzy so you don't need to switch context all the time
  • Notes: You can quickly write your thoughts, store some code snippets, or use the notes as a clipboard manager for stuff that you copy often. All of the notes are available through the Butler. You can lock some of them and easily copy them to clipboard.
  • Bookmarks: You already know, come on.

P.S We highly advise you to use Projects in Sizzy because all of these features are way more valuable when you are switching between projects.

Every Sizzy Project has its own tabs in the reference browser, notes, todos, bookmarks, etc.

 

More options for the undocked windows

We squashed a lot of bugs regarding the undocked windows in Sizzy, and we added new options in Settings -> General -> Windows so you can customize their behavior:

There are also new $butler$ actions for docking and undocking the windows:
