    Sure thing! appgrid.sh is just a single command calling nwggrid from nwg launchers, a series of graphical shell tools for sway. It was originally started in C++ but the author started the project again in Go.

    Maybe nwg-launchers could work.

    This is the last (at least for now) missing part of nwg-shell for sway: autotiling, Azote, nwg-launchers, nwg-panel and nwg-dock.

    Just installed it, still looking around. I can make a suggestion that could horrify some (but be a nice possibility with very little added space), make a keybind (I use super+m (you know menu)) for nwg-launchers (https://github.com/nwg-piotr/nwg-launchers). Nice overlay menu much like the gnome menu. Yes I know...we have dmenu/rofi/etc. But I just found this and it looks surprising on sway (lol). It's on the AUR. Both the grid and the bar look good, there's also his custom dmenu app.
