# Mult App Launcher

> Multi App Launcher for Windows
> Multi App Launcher
This is a small [electron](https://www.electronjs.org/) application that allows up to 20 applications to be launched simultaneously.
Profile can be saved so each day you don't have to open each application one at a time.
This is a small [electron](https://www.electronjs.org/) application that allows multiple applications to be launched simultaneously.

### Usage
App is currently Windows only (requires powershell).
Once installed, can load up to 20 app shortcuts to start.
Profile is saved in `%APPDATA%/<Your App>`.
### Usage
Simple open the app, then choose as many programs as you would like.
Increase the slider to get access to more program boxes.

You can either find the program or shortcut manually by clicking the gear icon,
or search for it with the search dropdown, and find the program on the list.

Once All your programs are selected,
Simply click the 'Start All Programs' button to launch them all.

Once you have all the programs you like, simple save your profile.

You can have as many profiles as you like.

### Theme
The dark and light theme are dependant on the Operating System theme.

### How it works
On launch it loads the profile from save (if it exists).
Once run, it calls the Powershell command `Start-Process -FilePath <PathToFile>` to launch program.
Each application is opened via `Electron.Shell.openItem`,
Which should provide a platform agnostic way of launching each application.
Profiles are saved in `%APPDATA%/<Your App>`.

Search looks in the default program list for the OS.
For Windows: `C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs`
For others: `/usr/share/applications`
