MinDos is a system or a "suite" for the program Rainmeter. (https://www.rainmeter.net)
The program works like this:
Rainmeter creates "objects" on top of your wallpaper which you can interact with in various ways.
Look further down for details on what each part / gadget of MinDos does.
This is my personal project that i have been working on, on and off, for the past year or so.
I usually take requests, but this one was not a request.
This is a creation of my moments of inspiration.
It is my passion to work on MinDos, and rainmeter in general.
Thank you very much for your continued support and feedback! :)

Visualizer
- Start it up and put some music on ;)
- Then scroll down on the visualizer's area and play around with the colors and images until you feel satisfied.
- Then enable chameleon. Function: A visualizer is an image that moves / changes based on music playing. This one happens to be VERY configurable. :D
Weather (WIP)
- Fetcher of current weather in your city / area.
Function: "Minimal" displayer of weather, condition and wind speeds.
MoodSettler
- Tired of looking for a good theme for your MinDos?
- Simply scroll down on the "button summoner" in the lower-right corner of your screen to summon MoodSettler.
There is currently 6 basic themes.
Geenie
- Right-click on the "button summoner" in the lower-right corner of your screen and then type your wish! :)
(Only works if the smaller buttons are not summoned) - Basically, geenie is your shortcut to MinDos.
Dont want to bring forth the theme changer?
Remember the name of the theme you like?
Just type its name, or the first 2 letters of it, and it'll happen! :)
Example: DarkPowers can be summoned by typing Da, Dp or Dark and then hitting enter. Simple as that!
(Same thing with gadgets, we = Weather, PC = PCInfo, etc.)
Launcher
- Intermediate complexity 'game' launcher which is easily configurable.
- It is still a work in progress, since i want it to be able to launch different sets of programs.
Visual: It is a round object, also known as a Vigor Menu to some, which i have edited to fit my needs :)
MusicuIsLifu (WIP)
- Fetcher of currently playing song from 3 different apps, VLC, Hyper and Clouder!
- I write WIP beside it's name because it is really.. really.. a Work in progress.
I have a lot of work to do on this one, but i have more important things to do for now :)
Info on MinDos "Plugins":
Chameleon (Plugin made by Socks-the-fox)
- Chameleon is a plugin that draws colors from your current wallpaper, which then are used on gadgets.
- To toggle Chameleon* right-click on the gadget's area, and select "Chameleon".
Or, start geenie and type in "chameleon" or "cham" and hit enter.
Visualizer can not fetch the colors automatically.
While Chameleon is active, left-click the visualizer and it will be fixed.
