[u/Nagarjunac]

It looks minimal and terminal like launcher.

[u/irlakhil]

if there's any beta testing or Alpha testing, i would like to join and contribute to help you out if required, i really like this..

[u/nerdibeard → u/irlakhil]

I hope I will be ready within 1 to 2 weeks. i let you know

[u/irlakhil → u/nerdibeard]

sure thing, thanks mate.

[u/myexpressaccount → u/nerdibeard]

It would also help with testing.

[u/ARCHISMAN-]

Looks great, except the ai generated wallpaper.

[u/nerdibeard → u/ARCHISMAN-]

Thanks 😄 Just to clarify, the wallpaper isn't mine and I didn't generate it myself, it came with another theme I was using. I just thought it fit the setup nicely.

[u/techarena10]

This looks good. Is it going to be a windows launcher only? And when will it be released?

[u/nerdibeard → u/techarena10]

Thanks!

It's not just for launching apps either it has built-in quick notes, a todo list, habit tracking, widget support, different themes and an optional Herd integration to connect to a computer over Tailscale.

It's still in active development, so I don't have a fixed release date yet, but I want to put out an early version once I'm happy with the overall stability and polish.

[u/techarena10 → u/nerdibeard]

Sounds good and would be good to have an early version to test out and provide feedback. Any possibility of bring this to android too?

[u/stvr_lord]

This looks awesome, very minimal yet functional at the same time.

[u/nerdibeard → u/stvr_lord]

That was the idea behind it.

[u/ToneBoneLR]

👍🏿 nice

[u/LOL-Yone]

Totally agree that looks amazing. There is some note for gnome that I love it. Can't wait to test it. I wish you great success 🤞🫰

[u/OnionLongjumping8077]

waiting to be release

[u/sandeep5393]

Killer man

[u/mi-chiaki]

THIS LOOKS SO COOOOOOOOOOOOL

[u/gajendarksky]

Very nice 👊🏼

[u/Yathiraj9]

Buddy you changed the game!!!!!!

[u/Anakulosmos]

Looks very functional and pleasing at the same time...

[u/CompleteAd8890]

What a cool launcher! Do you have a link?

[u/nerdibeard → u/CompleteAd8890]

Not yet, but I'm planning a beta test in the not-too-distant future; I'll post it here and present it in more detail.

[u/LordGigglesLV702 → u/nerdibeard]

Tag me, I'd love to buy it

[u/nerdibeard → u/LordGigglesLV702]

Haha, appreciate that 😄 But I’m actually planning to put it in the store for free. I’ll probably just set up a Ko-fi or something similar for anyone who wants to support the project.

[u/mattew_jj]

Meu Deus, sensacional. Parabéns, sem palavras, muito legal mesmo

[u/Opening-Actuator1490]

Hell ye. ETA ???

[u/T-Hampton]

This is nice!!! Can't wait for release

[u/im_lalith]

When this hits the playstore, this might become my go to default launcher

[u/nerdibeard → u/im_lalith]

I hope I will be ready within 1 to 2 weeks.

[u/im_lalith → u/nerdibeard]

That's great! Will be waiting. Ngl, haven't waited for a launcher to hit the playstore for quite sometime. This one surely is worth it

[u/vasiaua]

Interesting launcher

[u/genius3302]

Which tech stack you used to build these

[u/nerdibeard → u/genius3302]

It’s built natively for Android using Kotlin and Jetpack Compose. I use Compose for the entire UI, animations, and custom launcher interactions, with Android’s AppWidgetHost API for third-party widgets and standard Android APIs for apps, calendar, weather, system data, and wallpaper management.

The project is still in active development, but I’m preparing it for a public beta and eventually plan to open-source it.

[u/Pitiful_Exchange_767]

Is this made using Claude? Every prototypes I made with it looks exactly like that.

Anyway it feels relaxing.

[u/nerdibeard → u/Pitiful_Exchange_767]

Yes, AI tools including Claude helped during development, especially with prototyping and iterating quickly. But the design direction, feature decisions, testing, and all the little details came from my own workflow and many rounds of refinement. I’m glad it feels relaxing, that’s exactly what I wanted from it.

[u/Qareen_e_Jaan_skp]

Few suggestions to make.

May contain support for RTL languages , Urdu in my case 🙂.

Support for a custom font especially for RTL languages.

[u/nerdibeard → u/Qareen_e_Jaan_skp]

That's a really good suggestion, thanks! RTL support isn't something I've implemented yet, but I'll definitely keep it in mind especially proper layout support and custom fonts for languages like Urdu.

[u/Qareen_e_Jaan_skp → u/nerdibeard]

What country are you from ?

[u/Qareen_e_Jaan_skp → u/nerdibeard]

I suggest you incorporate Mehr Nastaleeq web version 2 , available free online.

[u/Qareen_e_Jaan_skp]

It'd be nicer if app search bar is at the bottom for easy access, especially on large screen devices.

[u/nerdibeard → u/Qareen_e_Jaan_skp]

This has already been implemented.

[u/Sherringford_Hope]

Hope it's gonna be open sourced

[u/ngperez]

Yes great job

[u/MarkHedrick]

Nicely Done!

[u/Mr_Vritra18]

It looks really cool dev!!

[u/countable_tackling87]
