Release v1.3.0 - Store apps, unified pins, and smoother dock motion.

Native Dock - Modern Dock for Windows 11

Install

1. Download NativeDock.exe below.
2. Install the .NET 8 Desktop Runtime (x64) if you don't already have it.
3. Run it. The dock picks up the apps already pinned to your taskbar.

Windows may warn about an unrecognized app, since the exe isn't code-signed. Choose More info, then Run anyway.

What's new

• Auto-hide now eases the dock off the screen instead of snapping away.
• Windows Store and other packaged apps show their real icons on the dock.
• Pins stay in sync with the Windows taskbar both ways: pin or unpin in either place and the other follows.
• Dragging pins to reorder is live and smooth, without rebuilding the dock on every move.

Runs on Windows 11 x64, on your primary display. To quit, open Settings from the dock and choose Quit NativeDock.
