A macOS app that helps users change their desktop wallpapers quickly.
Paper Brick is a small project created for me to enhance the process of changing desktop wallpapers. I found navigating through system settings to alter wallpapers unnecessarily time-consuming. To address this, I developed Paper Brick as a convenient System Tray menu. This design choice eliminates the need to constantly open and minimize windows, making it faster to change wallpapers.
With the app, you can:
- Chose a directory so that the app can scan all its image files;
- See thumbnails from all the scanned images;
- Select the new wallpaper by clicking an image.
This was a simple project. It helped me learn more about SolidJS, and discover new desktop solutions outside of Electron. For this project, I used:
- Tauri for the desktop layer;
- Solid JS for the UI;
- Solid Icons for the icons;
- Tailwind CSS for styling;
- i18n for internationalization.
