How do I keep the dock on screen while working in fullscreen mode on Mac?

How do I pin dock to screen, having it constantly disappear while I work in a window on fullscreen is making me anxious.

Not a feature of Full Screen.


Exit Full screen and simply expand the Window to occupy the entire screen real estate if that is what you want.


You can put the App in its own Desktop
