Using the elgato Stream Deck as a #nocode workflow productivity hack


This here is a quick tip on using the elgato Stream Deck to speed up my productivity.

Here are the tools used (affiliate links where available)

The main page of my Stream Deck is for shortcuts I use often. It's easier to press the button than to remember all the keyboard shortcuts.

Top Row

  • Additional windows shortcuts within a folder

  • Open a new tab hotkey

  • Websites I visit way too often

  • A folder for streaming shortcuts (this is where I have the button to turn the lights on (BELOW)

  • Folder to a folder of company file folders

Middle Row

  • Shortcut to "Windows" downloads folder

  • Shortcut to "iCloud" downloads folder

  • Folder housing different monitor layouts for applications and browser windows

  • Folder same as above but for current projects or tasks

  • Music Folder with buttons for media controls

Bottom Row

  • Folder housing shortcuts to open different email accounts (let me know if you want a Superhuman Invite)

  • Shortcut to open my Google calendar

  • I use snippets often so this shortcut is way easier than the keyboard hotkeys

  • Hotkey for closing the current window

  • Hotkey for locking the computer


CLICK ONE BUTTON AND TURN ON TWO LIGHTS
