Intro

Minions Intro Video

Minions is a productive tool to help your daily works, e.g.

  • Quickly search on google without switching to browser first
  • Quickly get the translation of selected text in a web page
  • Quickly launch a desktop entry
  • Quickly ...

It's like a launcher, but more than that. It's simple, elegant, and yet powerful and extensive.
