# macOS-style dock for Windows 10
[](https://github.com/ronilaukkarinen/macos-dock-for-windows/releases) [](https://www.reddit.com/r/desktops/comments/mzslxe/my_windows_10_is_now_perfect/)
Because using macOS daily I also want my Windows to look as minimal as possible. Dock is something I'm just used to instead of bulky start menus. This is why I tried to replicate it with Adobe Photoshop as close as possible. The dock is fully designed by me, following [macOS Design Guidelines](https://developer.apple.com/design/human-interface-guidelines/macos/overview/themes/).
