You can find this in this github repo - https://github.com/nwg-piotr/nwg-launchers

How are you configuring touchpad gestures?
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.

GNOME-style Application menu for other DE's?
Maybe nwg-launchers could work.

nwg-dock 0.0.1 ready for testing
This is the last (at least for now) missing part of nwg-shell for sway: autotiling, Azote, nwg-launchers, nwg-panel and nwg-dock.

Manjaro Sway Edition
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.

3 finger touchpad gesture to switch between groups
I don't think there are native gestures in qtile. I use fusuma, since it works better for me on X11 and wayland, but I've also used libinput-gestures in the past when on X11, and that works too.

I got an error while trying to use fusuma
I'm new to linux, running last version of ubuntu MATE. Tried to get fusuma to have a better experience with my touchpad (I'm using hp notebook). I followed the whole guide for ubuntu on the Github page, created the config.yml using these two commands:

I've had enough of the fact that there isn't a way to change the 4-finger swipe down touchpad gesture to trigger the overview instead of the present windows effect...
For info, I've been using Fusuma to configure my touchpad gestures and it is awesome!

Asahi Linux To Users: Please Stop Using X.Org
https://github.com/iberianpig/fusuma this might do the job? I have been using it on Hyprland and, despite the downside of being in Ruby, it works really well and seems stable.

3 Finger Workspace instead of 4.
I use Fusuma to manage gestures and have deactivated the COSMIC gestures extension.

This laptop has a trackpad above the keyboard
The gestures are interpretations of the touch signals that the trackpad provides, and those signals are available to your computer. The gestures and their functions are features of the operating system, but you can define your own gesture with tools like https://github.com/iberianpig/fusuma. Are you mad that the Magic Trackpad does not come with a full set of gesture support for Mint, Gnome, i3, or any of the gosh hundreds of window managers out there? What would you expect to happen to resolve this complaint?

Can I add custome trackpad gestures to pop_os?
I like using fusuma.

Additional gestures.
Thx! I actually looked at this, but it only can emulate shortcuts pressing, as I get it. Instead I tried https://github.com/iberianpig/fusuma which has more features and works perfectly with Hyprland.

Touchpad gesture
I use Fusuma to configure my gestures and it is awesome!

Using i3 on a laptop is such a great experience
you can install fusuma (https://github.com/iberianpig/fusuma) and add their i3 config (https://github.com/iberianpig/fusuma/wiki/i3) for a start
What are some alternatives?
When comparing nwg-launchers and Fusuma you can also consider the following projects:
polybar-dwm-module - A dwm module for polybar
touchegg - Linux multi-touch gesture recognizer
nwg-panel - GTK3-based panel for sway and Hyprland Wayland compositors
libinput-gestures - Actions gestures on your touchpad using libinput
nwg-bar - GTK3-based button bar for wlroots-based compositors
ToucheggKDE - TouchEgg configuration for MacOS and Windows like Touchpad Multi-Touch Gestures on KDE Plasma.
sway-launcher-desktop - TUI Application launcher with Desktop Entry support. Made for SwayWM, but runs anywhere
gestures - Fluid gestures for Linux.
dwm-relative-controls - Simple yet useful dwm patch
ydotool - Generic command-line automation tool (no X!)
win3wm - A Tiling Window Manager for windows 10, Inspired by i3wm
