# WallpaperEngine-Linux (ColorWall for Linux By Laxenta)
### An open-source, ultra-lightweight live wallpaper and desktop customization engine for Linux systems, built using Rust and Tauri.
> we have a proprietary project for windows, https://colorwall.xyz (in future it will be plan to change it to moe or something funny haha)
## Project Status: Target Mid-June 2026
This repository is currently a placeholder skeleton. Active code development and repository initialization are scheduled to begin in mid-June 2026, aligning with the official Microsoft Store release of the Windows client.
Take it all with a grain of salt, i know what to do but full research will help the score and plan more! i am busy a little for now, so yea! i will do it soon!
## Planned Features
* **Low-Overhead Performance:** Built on Rust and Tauri to maintain under 1% CPU utilization during video rendering.
* **Linux Compositor Integration:** High-performance background scene composition with zero-latency input handling.
* **Studio Scene Editor:** Node-based editor to combine interactive WebGL, shaders, and layered video assets.
* **Desktop Widgets:** Pin responsive, sandboxed HTML5/React tools directly to the desktop workspace.
* **Taskbar Customization:** Independent native control over panel transparency and acrylic blur effects.
## System Requirements & Prerequisites
* **We will try to have these as the Supported OS:** Major Linux distributions (Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora, Arch Linux).
## Local Development & Compilation
When the initial codebase is pushed, developers can clone and compile the project locally using standard Tauri tooling:
```bash
# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com
# Navigate to the directory
cd WallpaperEngine-Linux
# Run the development environment
cargo tauri dev
```
