A great companion to Noom, and the perfect answer to this query, is an app 
called HazeOver 
<https://apps.apple.com/us/app/hazeover-distraction-dimmer/id430798174?mt=12>. 
It darkens (or frosts, depending on your setting) everything but the 
frontmost window of the frontmost app.

The command "Hide Others" isn't quite as effective (desktop clutter remains 
visible, as do other windows of the frontmost app), and apps that have been 
open a while often won't respond to Hide commands (it's a long-standing 
MacOS bug). But HazeOver is a gem.

I'm not connected in any way to the app or its dev. Just a happy user.

Not directly in Moom, no.

Command-Option-H is "hide others," and works in most apps.
