Version 1.1 Status

Flick version 1.1 status.

Hello everyone, it’s been a while since my last post. My third semester just started so I've been busy for a few weeks now. Anyhow this post is just to update you guys on the upcoming version of Flick. I was still able to make some minor changes while studying and working. I am halfway there for the version 1.1 milestone. The most notable changes are the addition of the beautiful Catppuccin pastel theme and new picom compositor. “Catppuccin is a community-driven pastel theme that aims to be the middle ground between low and high contrast themes.”

Final Thoughts

Flick begins with the idea of creating an OS for my kid's old laptops. And now almost a thousand people from different countries are using which I am very proud of. I hope that you enjoy this next release as we enjoy it as our daily driver. I will release this next exciting version as soon as I finish all tasks. Thanks all.
