Centerpiece – Your trusty omnibox search

Today we are happy to annouce the v1.0.0 release of centerpiece ! What began as a small personal project with the goal to remove all bars in my desktop environment has transformed into a full featured application launcher with a variety of plugins.

Now, without further ado, enjoy this release and find us many bugs. -- @a-kenji & @friedow
