Isn't there a way to do this where you just click the minimize button while holding a modifier key (not on a mac at the moment so i can't test this). Install apple news app on mac. I think its either option or apple.

Option-clicking the minimize button will minimize all open windows in a single application, but not all open applications.
I can't seem to make option-clicking the minimized window in the dock maximize them all. It doesn't do anything.

Use Third-party Apps to Hide Desktop Icons on Mac. While using the Terminal to hide desktop icons on a Mac isn’t a difficult task, if you need to hide/unhide desktop icons in macOS on a very regular basis, using the Terminal might not be the most efficient method for you. The trouble is, if you hide (ALT-click or CMD-H), you hide all windows of that application. You probably don't want to do that, just to minimize the current window. In OS X you don't have the Title Bar, with an item for each open window (eg. 3 different items for 3 windows of the MS Word) - but instead, an indicator for applications that have open windows, but nothing indicates how many. 30 keyboard shortcuts Mac users need to know. Press this combination to minimize the front app window to Dock, or press Command-Option-M to minimize all the windows belonging to the front app. Mac memory usage is often occupied by apps, even browsers like Safari or Google Chrome. In the most dire circumstances, your Mac will toss a warning at you: 'your system has run out of application memory.' Don't despair – it's solvable. The first thing to note is this is a natural issue; your Mac has a limited amount of RAM.
Command+option+h will hide all other windows .. not exactly the same. Butler can 'unhide' all applications with the 'show all applications command' (which I've set to command+control+option h). This is great for when I want to focus on one single thing and thet toggle everythig back again.

How Do You Minimize All Apps On A Mac
Progress bar app mac. If you want to try it out but don't want to manually reopen all of your windows, keep the Terminal open in the background and simply type:
killall Dock
. Hit return or enter and your windows will magically expand when the Dock goes down.
Sometimes it's good to refresh the Dock.app anyway.
Minimize Window In Mac
I wrote a similar script that hides the windows of an application underneath the current window. It works quickly enough and doesn't hog dock space.
