# OpenHere

OpenHere is a dead simple tool to open your favorite apps from Finder, alot like OpenInTerminal-Lite.
You can create multiple different openers with the build script. see the pictures


these helpers will clone the icon of the app they will open

build output for my personal opener helpers




how they look in your toolbar



# install

after building your apps with the build command place them somewhere comfy.
then drag them into your toolbar while holding down (Cmd)

> ⚠️ on first start macOS will ask for your permissions to access Finder. these openers need this permission to determine your current working directory

i am going to just steal this gif from OpenInTerminal-Lite
