Quick capture: add a ticket from any app

Quick captureProjects & notesDuration

This 24-second video shows Quick capture in FavTray, a Mac menu bar app for developers. Add a ticket from any app with one hotkey and one line. Press your capture hotkey and type one line; tokens for the board, priority and status turn into chips as you type. Return saves it and puts you back where you were, and ⌘↩ saves it and opens the item.
