That’s motivation enough to continue working on the engine.

One feature that’s repeatedly requested through email and comments is the F12 hotkey. It will definitely be included in the feature list.

  • F12 Hotkey – to show and hide the widgets
  • WidgetDock – a widget manager widget
  • Animations and Effects – not a priority for now
  • Plugins – QT-based to make it really easy to create. I’ve sample codes of the dashboard’s plugins, really messy.
  • More widgets – include a larger set of default widgets. dictionary, calendar, maps, system stats.
  • Linux – because it’s QT based, we could easily make a linux version of the engine. Or even a MacOS version. (Thanks QT and Nokia)

What other features do you think should be included?
