ueli: A Cross-Platform Launcher at Your Fingertips

Solves in a sentence: Want to use the same launcher on Windows and Mac? ueli is cross-platform with consistent operation — search everything with one key.

For users who switch between Windows and Mac for work, having “the same tool on both systems” is a blessing.

What is ueli?

ueli is built with Electron and supports Windows, Mac, and Linux. Its core function is similar to other launchers — press a shortcut to bring up a search box, search for programs, files, and perform web searches.

The problem it solves: A cross-platform, zero-learning-cost launcher.

User Experience

ueli is very simple and straightforward to use:

• Alt+Space to summon
• Type keywords
• Press Enter to execute

Simplicity is its hallmark. Its interface is also clean — dark/light theme, clearly arranged search results.
