Drop anything into a shelf, keep moving, then drag it back out when ready.
Hold mixed input
Files, folders, URLs, text, and pasted images live together in one compact stack.
Move it back out
Quick Look, reveal, open, copy, save, share, or drag items out when ready.
Native where it counts
A tiny Electron surface backed by a Swift helper.
The renderer stays focused on the shelf. The native helper handles shake detection and bookmark-backed file references, so the release build feels like a macOS utility instead of a web page in a window.
