Velocity
WindowsBlazing-fast developer tool for Windows workflow optimization
Overview
Velocity is a developer utility built to supercharge Windows-based dev workflows. It integrates deeply with Windows Terminal (adding custom command shortcuts) and File Explorer (context menu options for quick project setup). Support for PowerShell, Batch, and Python scripts lets you automate repetitive tasks like build processes or dependency installs. Optimized for Windows 10/11, it uses system-level APIs for minimal latency and syncs command sets via OneDrive for cross-device access.
