> I want something like this It's existed for almost 40 years, and it's called emacs. If anyone questions emacs's ability to display incredibly useful UIs, try using magit[0]. Emacs sucks though, so I hope this comes out better! [0] https://magit.vc/ |

About 10 years ago or so Aza created Enso which ran on the desktop and then Ubiquity which ran in the browser. These were both steps in this direction. I looked at going further with the idea but quickly ran into the question of how best to implement with currently available desktop technologies. But a lot of folks have been nibbling at the edges of this problem for a long time and they end up using rofi or dmenu or emacs and a bunch of custom scripts.
In my opinion one really needs to design a brand new shell from the ground up. But when I say shell I mean OS, not terminal.
