Stryde - fast app launcher for Linux (0.1-0.2s launch, ~35MB RAM)

Renamed from Flux to Stryde

Hello everyone! I decided to create an application launcher inspired by Raycast, but for Linux - Stryde

I built the first version in 4-5 days and wanted to share it with you to get feedback, both good and bad.

Some highlights:

 
        ~0.1-0.2s opening time

    ~35MB RAM usage

    Written in Rust using the Iced GUI framework

    Instant search filtering

    Supports Breeze, Papirus, and Adwaita icon themes

    Works with system apps, user apps, and Flatpaks


  

Current features in v0.1:

 
        Search and launch applications

    Press Enter or click to open apps

    ESC to close

    Caching


  

Planned for v0.2:

 
        Arrow key navigation (Already did it)

    Built-in calculator for math expressions

    More customization options


  

I'm 14 and this is my first major open-source project. I'd love to hear your feedback on features, performance, code quality, or any bugs you find.

Github: https://github.com/dest-lab/stryde

Tested on Arch Linux with Hyprland, should work on most distros

Hope you have an awesome day!
