From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

1 Custom GLIBC locale configurator
Pick date format, time format, currency I'm currently using a weird combination of English, German, and Danish and it still doesn't fully do what I want (time is separated with a dot)
2 System hosts manager
Search, detect conflicts or other issues and add new items.
3 XCompose manager
I made something like this myself some time ago but it uses the outdated GTKSharp library and misses several features such as conflict detection. https://github.com/QazCetelic/Composition
4 Package manager
This might be a bit complicated, but it would be really neat to have an app to manage packages that doesn't freeze, crash or fail.
5 Port your app to tauri
I saw you're using Electron, you could port it to Tauri https://tauri.app/
It used to be tauri, but due to a bug in tauri that lasted more than a year, I had to switch to electron. I've been thinking of switching back, but I've got other priorities
