We build small, focused utilities that respect your machine. Native UI where possible. No telemetry. No data leaves your machine. Apache 2.0 licensed.
Targeting macOS today, Linux planned for v1.x, Windows on demand behind a platform-abstraction layer in pure Rust.
Keep your laptop awake — even with the lid closed.
A small utility that prevents your laptop from sleeping when you close the lid (and from dimming when the lid is open). Single-digit megabyte binary, signed and notarized for macOS distribution.
# macOS (today):
brew install --cask openlid/tap/openlid
# Linux + Windows: planned (see project roadmap).Latest release → · Documentation → · Architecture →
- Native, not Electron. Rust everywhere, with native UI bindings per
platform (AppKit on macOS via
objc2, planned GTK/Qt on Linux). Single-digit megabyte binaries. Cold-launch in under a second. - No telemetry. No analytics. No automatic update checks. Your machine is yours. We don't even know who's using our software, and we like it that way.
- Source available, source clean. All code published under Apache 2.0. Read it, fork it, improve it, redistribute it.
- Small, focused tools. Each app does one thing well. We resist feature creep so the utilities stay easy to understand and easy to trust.
- Cross-platform by design, not by accident. Pure-Rust core crates (state machines, IPC schemas, config) compile on every target; only the thin OS-binding layer changes per platform.
Each repo has its own CONTRIBUTING.md. The short version:
- Bug fixes welcome any time.
- New features should go through an issue first so we can align on the design before you write code.
- Linux/Windows backend contributions are very welcome after v1.0 of any given project — porting before the platform-traits stabilize is wasted work.
- Issues and PRs are triaged in spare time — please be patient.
Apache 2.0 across all projects unless explicitly noted.
