I'm an Applied AI Engineer in Montréal. I'm also a software engineering student, and I build side projects most nights. That's three workspaces, each with its own Jira, GitHub, deployments and inbox. Nothing was hard on its own. Keeping track of all of it was.
So I built the one place I was missing. CoIsland borrows the idea of Apple's Dynamic Island and turns the Mac's notch into a single view of every workspace. Every alert, issue and deployment says where it comes from: my job, my project or my coursework. One glance tells me what broke and where, and I act on it right there, or hand it to an AI agent that asks before it does anything.
I've run my days from the notch for more than two months. Nothing slips between workspaces anymore, and I no longer pay the tab-switching tax. If it does the same for you, or doesn't, write to me. I read every message.
In my own notch every day since July 2026
