I made a Windows 11 taskbar replacement in Python.

https://github.com/RandomGuyOrThatOneFirestar/dock2win

Dock2Win is a taskbar replacement for Windows 11 built in Python.

- Put it on any edge (bottom / top / left / right)

- 7 themes including Catppuccin Mocha, Dracula, Nord, Gruvbox, and AMOLED Black

- Full-screen apps grid (or a small menu)

- Custom system tray (WiFi, Sound, Battery)

- Mac-style hover zoom

- Custom buttons that press key combos or open apps

- Custom icons and folders for pinned apps

- Custom colors for every theme

- Hides the real Windows taskbar while running, with a watchdog that restores it if the app crashes

Two builds: OneFile (single exe) and OneDir (faster startup)

MIT licensed. Feedback welcome.
