A suite of native macOS desktop-customization tools for the ricing community —
fast, hackable, and visually cohesive by design.
Small, focused tools that each do one thing well — your menu bar, your themes, your windows — built on Apple's own frameworks for low latency and idle-to-near-zero CPU, and wired through a shared theming layer so your whole setup stays consistent. Polished out of the box for newcomers, a framework all the way down for enthusiasts.
