Description
Use the desktop to keep content from across your Mac accessible and organized in defined areas — or simply keep it clutter-free. A turf can be backed by a real folder, a Finder tag, or your hand-picked selection of files and folders. Turfs stay put through Show Desktop; you choose what Mission Control does with them. Quit, and the desktop is exactly as it was. It replaces Finder's own desktop icon layer, so it can never be sandboxed or sold on the Mac App Store. $29 once, 10-day trial, no card.

Could you build this?
Partial A real version requires deep macOS window-server hacking (NSWindow levels, CGS/CoreGraphics private APIs) to position interactive widgets directly behind normal windows yet above the desktop wallpaper and cleanly handle Mission Control and Stage Manager.
What it would actually take: Requires native Swift/Objective-C development using low-level CoreGraphics and Accessibility/WindowServer APIs to place borderless transparent windows at `kCGDesktopWindowLevel` or `kCGDesktopIconWindowLevel`. Handling Finder event taps, drag-and-drop file operations matching native Finder ergonomics, and surviving Mission Control space switches requires undocumented WindowServer behavior and deep macOS internal expertise.

Same idea, different domain
Nobody's really built a workflow automation tool for Real estate yet.
