Show HN: Docking – Extensible Linux dock in Python

20 points • by edumucelli • last Saturday at 8:49 AM • 5 comments • view on HN

Hi HN,

I’ve been having a lot of fun building Docking, an open-source dock for Linux written in Python with GTK 3 and Cairo. It includes an extensible applet system, 38 built-in applets, 12 themes, multi-monitor support, auto-hide, and works across several Linux/X11 desktop environments.

It also has prebuilt releases for x64 and arm64 across multiple package formats: AppImage, .deb, RPM, Flatpak, Snap, Arch, and Nix outputs.

GitHub: https://github.com/edumucelli/docking

Feedback is very welcome!

X11 only is a bit of a bummer although I’m not surprised - i don’t think i’d target Wayland either for this sort of thing if i was a happy x11 user already.
