<p><b>⚠️ Alpha Stage</b></p><p>Expect bugs, instability, and incomplete features.</p><p>Closed-source launchers are locking features behind paywalls and adding trackers. My goal is to offer powerful features with no compromises on privacy.</p><p><b>YAGNI ("You Aren't Gonna Need It")</b> is a principle which arose from extreme programming (XP) that states a programmer should not add functionality until deemed necessary.</p><p><b>Why Choose Yagni Launcher?</b></p><p>The launcher is the first thing you see every time you unlock your phone. It shouldn't be slow, heavy, or draining your battery in the background.</p><p>There are a lot of launchers out there. What sets Yagni Launcher apart is a relentless focus on performance and user experience over feature bloat.</p><p>Yagni Launcher matches stock launcher functionality and goes beyond it, rebuilt from scratch with modern Android tooling.</p><ul><li>⚡ Fast — Built with Kotlin &amp; Jetpack Compose, no legacy overhead</li><li>🪶 Small — ~2MB total size, 80–90% smaller than typical stock launchers (which often run 10–60MB+)</li><li>🔋 Efficient — Minimal resource and battery footprint</li><li>🛠️ Modern — 100% Kotlin, 100% Jetpack Compose, written from the ground up (no forked codebase)</li></ul><p>If it's not something you need, it's not in the app. That's the whole philosophy behind the name and it's why Yagni Launcher stays fast where others get slower with every update.</p>
