Why it's better

Native C++ Host

Reads your wallpaper directly from the OS registry (Windows) or dconf/gsettings (Linux) instantly. No heavy background polling, zero lag.

Adaptive Glassmorphism

The entire UI reacts to your background. Moody dark wallpaper? Moody UI. Bright summer meadow? Frosted white glass. It adapts seamlessly.

One-Click Install

A single PowerShell or Bash command handles everything. It downloads the extension, compiles the host, and registers the browser policies for you.

Get Started

Note: Browsers on Windows aggressively flag unpacked extensions. Our script automatically adds a registry policy to whitelist it. You will be prompted for Administrator privileges at the end of the script to apply this protection.
  1. Open PowerShell and run the install command below.
  2. The script will download, extract, and open the extension folder for you.
  3. Go to chrome://extensions or edge://extensions, turn on Developer mode.
  4. Click Load unpacked and select the opened extension folder.
