What is GhostTile?

This app provides a suite of features to hide and manage running applications on the Dock. Users can easily conceal active programs from the Dock through various methods, including drag-and-drop, selecting from the Applications folder, or clicking the app's icon directly on the Dock. Additionally, the app allows per-application configuration to either hide the Dock icon or add a menu bar item instead. Quick switching between hidden and visible app states is facilitated through keyboard shortcuts and an Expose-like overview window that displays all running apps. The app also supports integration with the popular Alfred v2 workflow tool, enabling users to access hidden applications seamlessly
