Keyboard centric (mice welcome too, of course)\n - Hotkey support (defaults to \u003ckbd\u003eSuper\u003c/kbd\u003e, configurable in gsettings)\n - Stupid-fast\n - Efficient, useful searching with prioritised listings\n - Modular backend design split from the frontend, allowing new backends in future\n   (hint: the frontend is not tied to `.desktop` files)\n - Context menus for `.desktop` actions (incognito mode, etc.)\n - Pin shortcuts to the `Favourites` backend and directly to the desktop using the context menu (unpin too!)\n - Configurable label (hide/text)\n - Automatically adapt to vertical panels\n - Automatically reload\n - Filter via categories\n - Session/screensaver controls\n - Drag \u0026 drop support for launchers\n - Sidebar launcher support\n - GTK3 + CSS styling options\n - Fully correct `X11` WM integration (grab policy and window types)\n - Not Python.\n\n**Planned**\n\nThese planned features will be implemented in the future:\n\n - Settings UI to control further visual aspects (labels/icons/options)\n - Improved styling for the window edge + search entry.\n\nMore will be added.\n\n![screenshot_context](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/solus-project/brisk-menu/master/.github/context.png)\n\nBuilding Brisk Menu\n-------------------\n**Requirements:**\n\n * GTK 3.18 or greater\n * GTK 3.18 build of Mate 1.16 or greater\n * **Modern** `meson` (`0.40.x`+) and `ninja` (Ubuntu users should use xenial-backports)\n\n**Build Process:**\n\n```bash\n    meson --buildtype plain build --prefix=/usr\n    ninja -C build -j$(($(getconf _NPROCESSORS_ONLN)+1))\n    sudo ninja -C build install\n````\n\n**Development on Solus:**\n\n```bash\n    meson build --buildtype debugoptimized --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --libdir=/usr/lib64 --libexecdir=/usr/lib64/brisk-menu\n    ninja -C build -j$(($(getconf _NPROCESSORS_ONLN)+1))\n    sudo ninja -C build install\n```\n\nLicense\n--------\n\nCopyright © 2016-2018 Brisk Menu Developers\n\n`brisk-menu` is available under the terms of the `GPL-2.0` license.\n\nThe `brisk_system-log-out-symbolic.svg` icon is a copy of `application-exit-symbolic.svg`\nto use within Brisk.\n\nThis icon is copyright © Sam Hewitt, from the [Paper Icons](https://github.com/snwh/paper-icon-theme) theme, available\nunder the terms of the [CC-BY-SA-4.0 license](https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/).\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fsolus-project%2Fbrisk-menu","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fsolus-project%2Fbrisk-menu","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fsolus-project%2Fbrisk-menu/lists"}
