Super cool! Would love to try to this out. 👏

Hello product hunt, We're excited to finally officially announce our public beta of LaunchMenu! LaunchMenu is a free, open source and cross-platform utility application, which is extensible through 3rd party applets. Unlike other search-based programs, LaunchMenu is designed with fully fledged applications in mind. This ensures that you never have to leave LaunchMenu to get the job done. With LaunchMenu you shouldn’t have to use the mouse, since it’s designed as a keyboard-first application. All menus in LaunchMenu are searchable and menu items have numerous actions. These actions can have a variety of behaviour, depending on the developer’s intentions. As this is still an open beta, currently the application only has 2 applets, notes and a dictionary, however watch this space for new applets coming in the future! If you're interested in helping out, or creating your own applets, keep reading! The core architecture of LaunchMenu is already established. With 3 noteable versatile systems in place: - An action system that allows for binding multiple actions to the same item, or to execute the same action on multiple items at once - A search system that allows for asynchronous and recursive searches in any menu, which automatically update when data changes - A settings system that makes it easy to make applets customizable by the user LaunchMenu's API is designed to be as broad as possible, while providing off-the-shelf components that can be - but don't have to be - used. This leaves applet developers with a lot of freedom in their design. If you're a developer, you can read about all of this here: https://launchmenu.github.io/dev... We're eager to hear what you all think of our project!
