Useful tool for Windows taskbar customization. Supports web configurations or instruction-like configurations that feature color effects, transitions, blur, images, text, rounded corners, shapes, transparency. Now rewritten in .NET 8!
Conflicts with TranslucentTB! Close it before running RainbowTaskbar
First off, grab yourself the hottest new release athttps://github.com/ad2017gd/RainbowTaskbar/releases.
RainbowTaskbar is a portable app, so there's no installing required. There are setups available, but they only install a single file and create a nice shortcut for you. If not already installed, you will be prompted to install the.NET 8 runtime.
After launching the app for the first time, the editor will automatically open. You can find other users' presets in the Browse tab, or you can create your own.
Have fun using RainbowTaskbar!
TODO
A sincere thank you to all the users of RainbowTaskbar! Since the first release of this program in 2021, I would have never expected it to have as many users as it has now.
RainbowTaskbar has really been a passion project of mine all this time. It all started thanks to my friend telling me about the fact that, at the time, there weren't any really goodtaskbar customization software (actually there were and still are but none would fit my personalization needs).
The first version of RainbowTaskbar was written in C, which was a pretty bad idea. I didn't realise at the time, but the UI was also pretty much garbage. However, when I sawopen source software websites reposting my tool, it really gave me the motivation to still work on this program.
Thanks to my other friend,zCri, we both rewrote RainbowTaskbar to the (then) current v2 .NET version (now v3!), which allowed me to implement even morefeatures with cleaner UI.
After the rewrite, RainbowTaskbar received even more attention from people, which also made me continue updating it. However, all the attention has also led to somecopies of this software being sold on markets such as the Microsoft Store by other people, stripping it of all the credits.
If you wish to support me in the future development of this app and, perhaps, other apps, you canbuy RainbowTaskbar from the Microsoft Storewhich is actually published by me, or by donating onPayPal. I thank you once again for using this software.
