Flow Launcher. Dedicated to make your workflow flow more seamlessly. Aimed at being more than an app launcher, it searches, integrates and expands on functionalities. Flow will continue to evolve, designed to be open and built with the community at heart.
- Search everything from applications, files, bookmarks, YouTube, Twitter and more. All from the comfort of your keyboard without ever touching the mouse.
Windows may complain about security due to code not being signed, this will be completed at a later stage. If you downloaded from this repo, you are good to continue the set up.
- Use `pip` to install `flowlauncher`, open cmd and type `pip install flowlauncher`.
- The Python plugin may require additional modules to be installed, please ensure you check by visiting the plugin's website via `pm install` + plugin name, go to context menu and select `Open website`.

Flow is under heavy development, but the code base is stable, so contributions are very welcome. If you would like to help maintain it, please do not hesistate to get in touch.
We welcome all contributions. If you are unsure of a change you want to make, simply put an issue in for discussion, otherwise feel free to put in a pull request.
You will find the main goals of flow placed under Projects board, so feel free to contribute on that. If you would like to make small incremental changes, feel free to do so as well.
