park VS yad

A shameless plug, but Park really helps me organizing my dotfiles.

Aside from the obvious uses - command line scripts - you can also do quite a bit with the GUI. Check out Yad for bash script GUI. X11 related tools like wmctrl, xdotool allow you to create spectacular scripts. I write and use numerous dynamic menus created with bash + jgmenu.

Are you referring to yad?

git clone https://github.com/v1cont/yad.git yad-dialog-code

yad - Program allows you to display GTK+ dialog boxes from command line or shell scripts. YAD depends on GTK+ only.

yad pushing your shell scripts to the next level via user inputs. For example i wrote a small script which lets me select an environment and an app and the url+port is written into the clipboard.

I make a lot of use of yad (which I think is in the standard repository) to give a GUI-like feel to my scripts. yad is a significant advance over zenity.

make a binding on an empty workspace that calls a yad script at the cursor

You might want to look at yad to add a GUI dialogue box to your script. Something like:

I like yad[0] for this. For example, I use it to present a GUI color picker to change/insert colors in Vim (via a plugin called vCoolor[1]). I also use it in some i3/sway scripts that need user input or to show a progress bar.

zenity should be a simple start https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/zenity (and apparently there is a fork too https://github.com/v1cont/yad but haven't tried it)
