How to Create a New File Using the right-click on My MacBook?

Windows has a very convenient feature, which I say, "create a new file using right click". This allows you to create many types of empty files. Really useful when I want to simply create a plain text file when programming. On Mac, when I right-click, I can only see very few options including "New Folder". If I want to create a new text file, I need to open TextEdit, write something if I need, and then save it in an RTF format. Then, I need to drag it to my working directory and change the extension to txt, since Mac hides file extensions for many known file types by default. Could there be a much easier way to do so? This is a pain if I always need to do something like that.

Wow~ You are lucky to find an answer here.

As we know, Mac's context menu includes the New Folder option, but the New File option is missing, making it difficult and troublesome if you want to create a new file.

Now iBoysoft MagicMenu enables you to add a New File shortcut in the right-click context menu. It's convenient to create a new file on Mac like doc, docx, xls, xlsx, txt, pdf, ppt….with a right-click on your desktop or in an open folder.

Why not download and save your time and effort?

Or you can learn other ways in the post How to Create a New File or Document on Mac?, but they can't be as easy as the right-click way iBoysoft MagicMenu.
