Description

Places an animated dock on the desktop for launchers, running applications, applets, and visual desktop effects. It is useful for users who want a highly themeable dock outside a full desktop environment.

Docks interact with the window manager, compositor, and session startup. Git builds may affect stability or visual behavior, so keep a simple fallback launcher available.

How to run
