Skylight  the launcher.
Share

Skylight is a newly developed launcher and expression entry tool. Sleek yet functional, simple yet powerful, transparent and universal. Boasting advanced habit learning and matching algorithms, infinite plug-in extensibility and the general smarts equivalent of a rat, it is purpose built to make your computing life easier.

It can't be explained, it must be tried! And please give us feedback.
