## Power up your desktop
A plugin system that extends your graphical environment with features like scratchpads, dynamic popup nested menus, custom notifications, easy monitor settings and more.
Think of it as a *Gnome tweak tool* for Hyprland, with options that can run on any desktop. With a fully plugin-based architecture, it's lightweight and easy to customize.
Contributions, suggestions, bug reports and comments are welcome.
