One-time facilities work

Set up her desk

Three steps, one time, about three minutes.

  1. A dedicated browser profile

    Never Guest mode — Guest erases her company every time it closes. Make a Chrome profile with her name on it; her paintings and her letterhead live there.

  2. Add it to the Dock

    Chrome menu → Cast, save and share → Install page as app… Her badge, her office. It opens full-screen with its own icon, like anything else she watches you open.

  3. Then turn the Wi-Fi off

    Remote-work policy. The whole office runs from the machine after the first visit — the off switch is part of the setup, not a workaround.

Two kids, two browser profiles — two companies.

What the door lock can and can't do

  • Holding Esc always exits fullscreen. By design — it's how you get out.
  • Cmd+Q still quits. Chrome's hold-to-quit confirm is the net.
  • The lock needs Chrome today. Safari and Firefox are arriving.
