This is a growing collection which curates my workflow creations for [Alfred](https://www.alfredapp.com). Some of them are Terminal friendly.

†: [Powerpack](https://www.alfredapp.com/powerpack/) is required to enable certain functions.

This page is also available in Chinese, see [漢語版](https://github.com/BaksiLi/AlfredWorkflows/blob/master/README_CN.md).

## Other features

### Themes

I use the **Frosty** theme family created by myself. They are *Frosty Light* and *Frosty Dark*, originally created to fit into macOS Mojave when Dark Mode was firstly introduced. Now they are updated for macOS Big Sur!

### Snippets
Please refer to the list [AlfredSnippets](https://github.com/BaksiLi/AlfredSnippets).

### Web Searches
**Web Search** (in *Alfred Preferences* -> *Web Search*) enables fast queries from a website by its URL.
Given its [simplicity](https://www.alfredapp.com/help/features/web-search/custom-searches/), why do I still bother to introduce it here? Because **knowing what it can do is far from know how to do it**. Here I will propose a few suggestions that could boost your efficiency.

If you find the one that fancy you, just copy & paste the link to your browser to load it. The icon has to be loaded manually.

Wolfram|Alpha

Suppose you are solving a question:
> How many times faster it is to solve TSP (Travelling Salesperson Problem), by using dynamic-programming-based algorithm (![$n!$](https://latex.codecogs.com/svg.latex?n%21)) than using brute force search algorithm (![$n^2 2^n$](https://latex.codecogs.com/svg.latex?n%5E2%202%5En)), given that n=100?

The solution is obtained by computing ![$\frac{100!}{100^{2}\times 2^{100}}$](https://latex.codecogs.com/svg.latex?%5Cfrac%7B100%21%7D%7B100%5E%7B2%7D%5Ctimes%202%5E%7B100%7D%7D).
It could be done in just one line:
```
alpha 100!/(100^2 * 2^100)
```
![illustration](features/alpha1.png)
and you will see the following result in Wolfram|Alpha:
![illustration](features/alpha2.png)
Powerful, innit?

The default keyword is `alpha`.

Wolfram MathWorld

For checking definitions in maths, stats and computer science.

The default keyword is `math`.

Standford Encyclopaedia of Philosophy

A good (actually the best) reference for philosophy. The official dashboard widget is so dumb that cannot be easily used nowadays. Alfred provides a perfect way to access it.

![SEP illustration](features/sep1.png)

The default keyword is `sep`.

\* Another option is to search directly in the SEP catalogue, which requires [*Friend of SEP* membership](https://plato.stanford.edu/support/friends.html).

The default keyword is `sepf`.
