Version 4.5.0 offers a traditional desktop beside tiling
Version 4.5.0 is the release. A machine already on Omarchy runs Update > Omarchy, and the notes ship a floating workspace with a dock beside tiling, a native install on an M1, M2, M3, or Neo MacBook, and 50 languages.
Version 4.5.0 is the release. Update > Omarchy is the route for a machine already on Omarchy. Super + L cycles any workspace between tiling, scrolling, and floating. On a floating workspace, every window gets a titlebar, a dock shows pinned apps, everything that is running, and a grid of every app installed, and Super + M minimizes a window down to the dock.
It is the first big feature release since Quattro, after over 740 pull requests from more than 180 contributors in twelve weeks. A download on macOS puts Omarchy alongside macOS on an M1, M2, M3, or Neo MacBook, and Homebrew does it in one line, brew install omacom/mac/omarchy. M4, M5, and M6 are being worked on right now.
Omarchy speaks 50 languages. Setup > Language, or the omarchy language command, switches the menu, the desktop, and the notifications immediately. The system locale follows on the next login.
The installer, or Setup > Keyboard, sets up Japanese (Mozc), Korean (Hangul), Simplified Chinese (Pinyin), Taiwan (Zhuyin), and Hong Kong (Cangjie). Each comes with the fonts for its character forms, the candidate window follows the theme, and Super + I switches input languages. Hangul, Zhuyin, and Cangjie keep their standard key positions on Dvorak, Colemak, or AZERTY, and tapping Shift on its own steps out into Latin letters and back.
The release ships a first ARM ISO, with preliminary support for the DGX Spark desktop and for N1X laptops, the Dell XPS 16 Creator Edition and the ASUS ProArt P14. It is still early, and the notes ask for reports of anything that breaks.
