What is Ulauncher FOR  LINUX?

Ulauncher

Ulauncher is a handy app that makes using Linux a breeze, especially if you're missing macOS' Spotlight. Once you get the hang of it, there's just no going back!

What is Ulauncher?

This cool GTK+-based application is written in Python and packs a bunch of productivity tools to keep you on track. You can search for apps with fuzzy matching, do quick calculations, use shortcuts, browse files easily, customize color themes, and even add extensions to boost functionality!

Easy App Search

One of the best things about Ulauncher is how it understands natural language. You don't have to worry too much about spelling! It usually knows what app you're trying to launch and remembers your previous choices. Plus, it can automatically pick the best option for you.

File Browsing Made Simple

If you need to find files or directories quickly, just hit CTRL+Space to bring up Ulauncher's GUI. Then type "~" or "/" followed by "Alt+Enter"—it's super easy!

Create Your Own Shortcuts

Creating custom shortcuts is essential for any good launcher. With Ulauncher, you can set up shortcuts for web searches and even scripts that automate tasks.

Theming Options

Ulauncher comes with four default themes, but here’s the fun part: you can create your own custom color themes! This allows you to personalize your workspace just how you like it.

A Few Hiccups

Even though Ulauncher is pretty awesome, it's not perfect. For instance, it might struggle with some Linux distributions that use Wayland sessions by default. This means hotkey events from Ulauncher may not always work as expected.
