Ulauncher
Application launcher for Linux

Ulauncher is a fast application launcher for Linux that allows users to quickly search and open applications, files, and more. It supports custom color themes and a rich extension ecosystem that developers can build upon using the Extension API. The project is open-source and community-supported through donations and code contributions.
Users install Ulauncher via their Linux distribution's package manager, then invoke it with a keyboard shortcut to search and launch apps or trigger extension-powered actions.
