Dockey

What is Dockey?

Dockey is a lightweight macOS utility that lets you customize advanced Dock settings with a simple visual interface.

No Terminal commands.
No hidden defaults.
No guesswork.

Preview your changes instantly before applying them.

Why Dockey?

macOS includes hidden Dock settings that normally require Terminal commands to access. Dockey makes those settings accessible through a clean, native macOS interface.

You can:

• • Change Dock animations
• • Adjust hidden behavior
• • Modify layout preferences
• • Preview changes live
• • Restore defaults anytime

Built for macOS power users who prefer clarity over command lines.

Who is it for?

• • Mac users who want more control over their Dock
• • Developers who don't want to memorize defaults write commands
• • Designers who care about UI behavior
• • Anyone who prefers a visual tool over Terminal

Why not just use Terminal?

You can. But:

• • Commands aren't always documented clearly
• • Syntax errors are easy
• • You can't preview changes
• • Undoing changes requires more commands

Dockey makes experimentation safe and visual.
