About uBar
uBar replaces the macOS Dock with a bar that can act as a taskbar or a dock. In taskbar mode each window gets its own entry; clicking an app opens its window menu, and hovering shows live previews. Grouping can be switched off to list every window.
On multi-monitor setups each screen can have its own bar showing only its apps and windows, or a mirror mode repeats the same bar everywhere. Recent versions add flashing tiles for apps that want attention and progress display for media apps. It requires macOS 10.13 or later.
