Atmos 1.0: Earthrise 🌍 Atmos isn't a browser app any more, it's the whole desktop, on Linux. A taskbar, the sidebar, the command bar on a tap of Super, Alt+Tab and snapping, and your other Linux apps beside Atmos's own, all in one look. Since 0.24: - Every app in a window of its own - Screenshots, clipboard history, a lock screen and middle-click scrolling, built in - Two new apps: Files, which finds anything in your home as you type, and a Terminal - Video wallpapers, Set as Wallpaper on any image in Atmos Browser, animated ones too - Community extensions always marked Arch Linux with Hyprland: one pacman command, then atmos-setup. Windows stays on 0.24, no set plans yet. github.com/samsaraserenade/a…

Chromium is everywhere. Spotify, Discord, TradingView and countless other apps ship their own copy, bloating storage and RAM. Atmos is a desktop that shares one runtime across all its apps. Kilobyte-sized installs. ~250–300 MB less RAM usage per app. Free & open source.

Development hasn't slowed down, I'm just partway through multiple ideas.

Next release might take a while. The Windows build still works, but I’m unsure about maintaining it. Regardless, all the code is open source, so anyone can continue it however they like. A quick look at the last couple days: Added~ Linux support (Arch + Hyprland), with Atmos as the whole desktop Taskbar, Alt+Tab and Task View Each app in its own window (Terminal, Finance, Browser, Chat, Music, Settings) Glass windows with blur (on by default, toggle in Settings) Atmos Browser, Chat and Music as background apps: closing hides them, Quit from the taskbar Close-behaviour choice per app (keep running / quit) Sidebar on every workspace Settings as its own window Cursor theme and size picker in Settings → Appearance Display scale option Snipping tool (Super+Shift+S) Command bar on a Super tap Workspaces: Steam gets its own, games open fullscreen on another Crash recovery: if a shell window fails, Atmos falls back to one window and tells you Session log for troubleshooting rev/restack, rev/shutdown & way more commands Changed~ Browser tabs moved into the title bar, Chrome-style Maximise keeps the taskbar and sidebar visible Now Playing works across every app, with artwork and controls Music’s file picker now uses the system dialog, and only the files you pick are shared with it Chat’s widgets get a copy of your data without your session tokens Chat’s device verification now runs in the background, so a redraw can’t interrupt it Taskbar and sidebar are fixed in place, so they can’t be dragged or resized Finance charts handle much bigger histories Fixed~ A Lot. To do~ Music window showing what’s playing from any app (YouTube thumbnails etc.) Faster music library scanning Window snapping Per-app choice: part of the shell or its own window Security review before release Atmos Files: a tag-based file explorer

Six months ago I wanted a portfolio tracker, now it's my operating system. "We need to go deeper."

Atmos 0.24.0: Liftoff 🚀 The see-through window is gone. A self-updating Linux AppImage is coming soon, once it's been tested on real hardware. "One small step for Atmos, one giant leap off Windows."

Atmos 0.23.0: Remote Space and rev cmds now control whatever's playing, whichever extension it's in (browser tabs included). Also: the panel switcher pops up the instant you press it, the Performance widget got an overhaul, and the SDK now supports command aliases. More commands: rev/pause rev/widget "In space, no one can hear you pause."

Atmos 0.22.0: Keystone Shortcuts were scattered across nine places, and extensions could swallow them. Now there's one set, and it works everywhere, even in text fields and extensions. Websites now follow your Atmos theme too. Plus some new commands =) rev/sidebar-side rev/wallpaper rev/reload "Respect my authoritah!"

Atmos 0.21.1: Sound Check An independent review read through 0.21 and found 49 edge-case bugs. 48 are fixed: covers that could break a song file, a library forgetting an unplugged drive, tabs sleeping with unsaved work. Mostly invisible, which is the point. "Testing, testing, one two... one two."

Instead of having 15 different applications doing 15 different things, have one environment where different capabilities plug into each other." -@atmosdesktop
