We are gathering ideas for possible use cases of the Touch Bar on the
new MacBookPro and would like to hear from you! What would improve your
workflow? What would help our users?

We will develop[1] a solid 1.0 API around the top features to get the
ball rolling and will iterate on these going forward.

Apple has outlined guidelines and best practices[1] for the Touch Bar
that are good to keep in mind. Here are some of the most important
points to consider:
1. Design a contextual experience. Make the Touch Bar relevant to the
current context on the main screen.
2. Use the Touch Bar as an extension of the keyboard and trackpad, not
as a display.
3. **Don’t expose functionality solely in the Touch Bar.
4. Avoid using the Touch Bar for tasks associated with well-known
keyboard shortcuts.
