Meet macOS

Windows and applications

Move between applications and windows without confusing hiding, minimizing, closing, and quitting.

8 minute lesson

~~~

Command-Tab switches applications. `Command-“ cycles through windows belonging to the current application.

The red control closes a window. The yellow control minimizes it. The green control enters full screen or adjusts the window layout.

Use Command-H to hide an app and Command-M to minimize a window. These actions preserve the work but affect different parts of the interface.
