A modern app launcher for the Odoo backend: tap any app from a clean grid, jump anywhere with instant search, reorder by drag-and-drop, and set your own wallpaper and brand colours. Free and open source.

Launch, find and arrange — like your phone
The home screen turns every installed app into a tile you tap to open. Find any screen in a keystroke, and shape the grid to the way you work.
Tap to launch
A responsive grid of every installed app. One click opens the app — no digging through the top menu.
Instant search
Start typing — or press Ctrl + K — to find any menu and jump to it. Accent-insensitive: “facturacion” finds “Facturación”.
Drag to reorder
Arrange apps exactly how you like, or group them by category. Your layout is saved per user.
Your own wallpaper
Pick one of nine bundled wallpapers or upload your own; the theme adapts icon contrast so everything stays readable.
Keyboard first
Arrow keys move across the grid, Enter opens the app, Esc clears — and typing anywhere lands in the search box.
Icons your size
Small, medium or large tiles in one click — the grid re-flows and your choice is remembered.

Make it match your brand
A simple Settings page with a live preview. Tune the brand, primary, info, success, warning and danger colours, the navbar and the home app names — then reset anytime.

Nine wallpapers, one click
A bundled gallery right in Settings: six backgrounds colour-matched to the theme palettes plus three signature designs. Pick one and it becomes your home screen — no upload needed.
