Alfred Workflows - Preview

After giving a thorough introduction on how to use both the free and Powerpack-driven versions of Alfred, Lee takes a deeper dive into building customised workflows. In this video, you learn how to build simple Keyword and List Filter workflows, understand how arguments and variables work and break down a complex workflow into its component parts, allowing you to better grasp each one.

At the end of the show, Lee shows his most-used workflows that can be obtained directly from the Alfred Gallery, including some on popular applications like DEVONthink, OmniFocus, and Obsidian.
