The Best Services, or Mini-apps, to Add to Your Mac

The Mac's services menu, accessed by right-clicking or through the application menu bar, offers a range of quick actions like dictionary lookups and adding text to to-do lists. Users can customize which services appear and assign keyboard shortcuts via System Settings. Additionally, downloadable custom services such as Dictater for text-to-speech, CalcService for in-text calculations, and WordService for text manipulation enhance functionality significantly. Another useful tool, SearchLink, automates web searches and markdown link generation from highlighted text. Users can also create their own services using Apple Shortcuts for further customization.
