We just shipped terminal support in Workbench 1.4! Now you can toggle between remote desktop and terminal whenever you want, right from the toolbar. On Mac-to-Mac, terminal opens in its own window.

Last year our cofounder and product designer @gdonelli started experimenting with prototypes to mimic graphite for Apple Pencil. He used a standard 2B pencil as our north star because of its familiar soft, toothy drag ✏️ Where we landed not only replicated the feeling of graphite, but also the look and sound of it too!

American life is an all-inclusive resort; Italian life is à la carte menu. Except for health care, American health care is a jewelry store.

The iPad's external display support is underrated. I connected my iPad to a Studio Display and ran Workbench. Now my headless Mac mini (back in Minneapolis) is running full-screen on a 27" display in Ohio. Remote Mac on a Studio Display through an iPad. Pretty wild. 🤯
