About Kando
Kando is a cross-platform pie menu for your desktop. It offers an unconventional, fast,
highly efficient, and fun way of interacting with your computer! You can use Kando to
launch applications, simulate keyboard shortcuts, open files, and much more.
Kando is designed to be used with 🖱️ mouse, 🖊️ stylus, 👆 touch, or 🎮 controller input.
However, Kando can also be efficiently controlled with a keyboard.
If you are using Kando on Wayland, some additional setup may be required. For instance,
on GNOME you will need to install the Kando Integration extension. You can read more on
https://kando.menu/installation-on-linux/. Kando will also tell you this when you start
it for the first time.
