Desktop Features #474

Open vmchdo opened 7 months ago

vmchdo commented 7 months ago

Problem

The desktop has no OS-Native ways to play with the desktop

Proposal

I think the desktop should've had more importance, like a OS Native icons arrange, mouse-cursor drag and select area and such. For me it's kinda big deal, even though it didn't changed how much I'm loving the OS! (everything else's so clean and optimized, nice job.)

Prior Art (Optional)

To enhance the desktop's interactivity, I’ve created prototypes and mockups to illustrate potential features.

Prototypes:

And for folders and files sorting:
