Flow.Launcher is an extensible desktop productivity tool for Windows that provides a centralized, command-line style interface for launching applications, files, and system settings. Built in C#, it functions as a keyboard-driven launcher that allows users to execute system tasks, perform web searches, and manage administrative operations directly from a unified search input.
The project is defined by its modular plugin architecture, which enables the integration of third-party extensions to add custom search providers, specialized workflows, and system command capabilities. Users can further tailor the environment through extensive interface customization, including themes and layout adjustments, while leveraging system-wide hotkeys to trigger the interface from any active application.
Beyond core launching capabilities, the tool includes built-in utilities for mathematical calculations, shell script execution, and browser bookmark searching. It maintains consistent navigation by synchronizing with active file explorer paths and supports automated system maintenance through privileged command execution. The application is configured via structured text files, ensuring that user preferences and plugin metadata remain persistent across sessions.
