Visit deskbox.fun ↗What is DeskBox?
DeskBox is a free, open-source desktop organizer for Windows 10 and 11 that uses native WinUI 3 widgets to manage files, folders, todos, notes, weather, and music controls. Widgets collapse into compact capsules when idle and expand on demand, keeping frequently used content visible without consuming desktop space. All data stays locally on your PC.
The project describes itself as an open-source alternative to Stardock Fences. Built with C#, WinUI 3, and .NET 10 Native AOT, DeskBox preserves the native Windows desktop and file system while providing real-folder-backed organization, drag-and-drop support, and customizable layouts across twelve languages.
