Folder Shelf
A local-first macOS menu bar launcher for project folders and screenshots.

Folder Shelf is a macOS menu bar app that lets users pin project folders and quickly access recent screenshots from a single click. It runs locally with no account, analytics, or cloud sync required. The app is designed for fast, private access to frequently used folders and files without leaving the desktop.
Users pin folders and the app surfaces them alongside recent screenshots in a macOS menu bar dropdown for one-click access.
