Sticky Notes — a native GTK4 checklist for Omarchy

[Christopher-Moreira]

I built a small native GTK4 sticky-note checklist for Omarchy and Hyprland.

It is designed to stay out of the way: it opens as a regular floating window on the current workspace, does not use a special workspace, and can remain resident while hidden.

Features

• Searchable as Sticky Notes through Super + Space
• Fast show/hide toggle, suitable for a Hyprland keybind
• Optional Waybar icon with the pending-task count
• Multiline notes with Shift + Enter
• Native symbolic pencil controls for multiline inline editing
• Persistent drag-and-drop reordering through native three-bar handles
• Atomic local persistence—no account or network service
• Quick sparkle burst from the checkbox when a task is completed
• Native GTK4/PyGObject implementation with no Electron runtime

Install on Arch Linux / Omarchy

curl -LO https://github.com/Christopher-Moreira/omarchy-stickynote/releases/download/v1.0.5/omarchy-stickynote-1.0.5-1-any.pkg.tar.zst
sudo pacman -U omarchy-stickynote-1.0.5-1-any.pkg.tar.zst

After installing, press Super + Space and search for Sticky Notes. The README includes the optional Hyprland keybind, hidden autostart, window rules, and Waybar module.

The PKGBUILD and .SRCINFO are ready. AUR publication is pending only because new account registration is temporarily closed; I will publish it there when registrations reopen.

Feedback is welcome, especially around the default window size, keybinding choice, and Waybar integration.
