Early Access Software

Get involved with this software as it develops.

Note: This Early Access software is not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to use this software in its current state, then you should wait to see if it progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“We are already far with the development. However, there are still some points that we would like to revise or expand before we release the software.

In addition, we want to know from you, what you think of the software and what you would like to have different. Because not only us should inspire the software, but also you. So help us optimizing the software in the best possible way.”

Approximately how long will this software be in Early Access?

“Hard to say. It depends on how much interest there is in the software, what the community wants to change and how well the development works.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“

Software should become more stable
More extensions
Improved UX (User Experience) and UI (User Interface)
Archievements
Better Tutorials (within software and in forum)

”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Current features:

You can use more than 15 predefined extensions
You can learn the basics with our interactive tutorials (will be improved later)
You can create projects
You can add elements to the project
You can configure and combine elements
You can include your own extensions
You can download projects and extensions from the ShareCenter
You can make condition based projects (will be improved later)

The software can be unstable because it is still in early access (beta). If you find a mistake, please let us know. We will fix the error as soon as possible.”

Will this software be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“Yes, during Early Access the software is free. After the release we will charge a small service fee.”

About This Software

With PureDesktop you can easily create your own animated wallpaper. Videos, Pictures, Effects, Visualizers and much more. Everything you need in one application. With the power of Qt and QML you can easily create your own Extensions. Or get extensions from the community over the ShareCenter. Also you can download complete wallpaper from the community or publish your own wallpapers.

Important:
The software needs a bit of training and is not "Plug'n'Play". It therefore requires a little training time! Please note this!

Layer based design
Live Designer
High Performance
Low CPU usage
Different modes: Behind Desktop, Over Desktop, Always on top
ShareCenter - Upload and download extensions and wallpapers
Reacts to mouse and keyboard
The full Qt package: Qt3D, QML, OpenGL, QtQuick, Qt WebEngine (Chromium), Shaders and Lottie

60 FPS should be stable most of the time, but it depends on the amount of visual effects and layers your wallpaper is using. The Software will run with a lower CPU priority, which leads to lags if some other process (like games) is running at the same time. But rather your wallpaper is lagging than your game ;)
You also have some Performance-Options like Render-Type, Swap-Interval, etc.

Thanks to the simple integration of Qt plugins (QML / C ++) extensions can be developed quickly and efficiently. Anyone can expand the software as required. No matter if visualizer, effects, multimedia, animations, web content, launcher ... There are no limits.
