About

Backgrind is an overlay window for AI coding agents, built for vibe coders and pro developers on macOS and Windows. It puts Claude Code, Cursor, or its hosted Grindy model in an always-on-top window that floats over whatever you are doing, so you can fire off a task, go build or play, and only get tapped when the agent actually needs you. Backgrind works as a thin frontend over the CLI you already use, keeping your login, history, hooks, and workflow intact while floating over your editor, browser, docs, or even a borderless full-screen game. The window can be dragged, stretched, recolored, faded through, summoned with a hotkey, or switched into click-through glance mode so your clicks and keystrokes pass straight to what is underneath. It flashes and chimes only when your agent needs approval, asks a question, or finishes. Backgrind also acts like a real mini-IDE, with a file tree, syntax-highlighted previews, rendered Markdown, and clickable file links.

About

Simple and modern GNOME media player. Clapper is a GNOME media player built using GJS with GTK4 toolkit. The media player is using GStreamer as a media backend and renders everything via OpenGL. The player works natively on both Xorg and Wayland. It also supports hardware acceleration through VA-API on AMD/Intel GPUs, NVDEC on NVIDIA, and V4L2 on mobile devices. The media player has an adaptive GUI. When viewing videos in "windowed mode", Clapper will use mostly unmodified GTK widgets to match your OS look nicely. When the player enters "fullscreen mode" all GUI elements will become darker, bigger, and semi-transparent for your viewing comfort. It also has a "floating mode" which displays only video on top of all other windows for a PiP-like viewing experience. Mobile-friendly transitions are also supported. We improved the GL/GLES context automatic selection. Additionally, it also has a few patches, thus some functionalities work better (or are only available) in Flatpak version.
