Caffeinate is definitely the one I miss most on Windows. Super handy to keep your machine awake whilst some task is ongoing.

I’ve been looking for a better way to do this than just setting my PC to never sleep. Thanks for this. Now I need to find a Mac alternative as well.

keeping you awake wraps this up in a menu bar icon that makes it easy to toggle on or off
