All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

It's out. After a few months building this mostly at night, DeskLayer is finally on Steam. New here? DeskLayer replaces your Windows taskbar with a floating dock you design yourself, adds live wallpapers, and drops widgets on your desktop - clock, weather, system monitor, and whatever you build.

What's in the box

  • A taskbar editor you drag, restyle, and shape however you want

  • Live video + HTML wallpapers, with a starter gallery built in

  • Desktop widgets, and an editor to make your own

  • Multi-monitor support

  • 7 languages, auto-detected on first run

A 1.0 from one person

It's real, it works, and it'll have rough edges I haven't hit yet. If something breaks or feels off, tell me - that's how it gets better, fast.

Come hang out

  • Bug? Report it on Discord

  • Got an idea? Drop it in suggestions

  • Made a cool setup? Share it in showcase - and share the file so others can use it


Discord: join here Thank you for taking a chance on this. Now go make your desktop yours.
