Small little trick that works really well for me: make different users on your MacBook. I have one 'personal' user and one 'work' user. Each have different programs installed and are logged into different accounts.

Even if I'm in the same space physically I switch between roles.

I do something very similar to this except using Spaces on my Mac, but yeah a "distractions" space, a "work" space, and a "code" space.

You mean the integrated macOS spaces you can switch between? A lot of people seem to like Workspaces by Apptorium.

Very cool! Thanks for the tip, I hadn't heard of that app yet, will give it a try.
