A desktop environment for Linux, visually inspired by OSX Snow Leopard with a touch of contemporary. Coming with compositor, apps like dock, finder, status bar, and a UI framework like AppKit. Scratching my own itch and would love to see if it can gain traction. Still in the early innings though.

what framework/techstack are you using? i'd love to see something built on top of GNUstep which is close to what OSX is originally based on. (don't know how much of that is still found in Snow Leopard)

		The goal is not to use a similar tech stack e.g. GNUstep. Instead I'm focusing more on outcome - a desktop environment with a similar degree of polish and functionality without the need for third party tools. To stay competitive and iterate fast I'm adding a high-level JS/CSS API on top of Wayland, think AppKit + SwiftUI. If you look over my shoulder it might look like I'm making a webapp, but on a custom browser.
