Command-first Android launcher

Re:T-UI

A terminal-styled home screen for people who want Android to feel like a small workstation: launch apps by typing, keep modules docked, script with Lua and Termux, and tune the interface from readable docs instead of hunting through hidden menus.

mako@retui:~/docs$ ls -la start-here/

Start here

Choose the file that matches what you are trying to do.

The homepage is the docs file browser. If you already know the command, jump to a reference. If you are evaluating the launcher, start with screenshots and product sections.

new-user.guide

Learn the command-first basics, opening settings, and using help without blocking the terminal.

Getting started Daily commands

app-control.guide

Hide noisy apps, restore hidden apps, inspect packages, and build app drawer groups.

Apps guide Drawer wiki

modules.guide

Use dock panels, native modules, Termux modules, and Lua modules that feel built into the launcher.

Module market Modules guide

themes-presets.guide

Work from wallpaper auto-color, save presets, browse marketplace looks, or submit a setup.

Preset market ASCII Lab

Product showcase

The launcher is the terminal, the dashboard, and the control surface.

These are real app screens from the current site assets. The point is not just retro styling; it is keeping daily phone operations inspectable and fast.

Re:T-UI launcher home screen on Android — Home screen with terminal input, status surfaces, and command-first navigation.

Re:T-UI help command output listing commands — `help` turns the launcher into its own quick manual.

Re:T-UI settings hub — The settings hub groups setup while preserving the terminal look.

Lua module preview in Re:T-UI — Lua modules bring small tools directly into the home surface.

mako@retui:~/docs$ find wiki guides -maxdepth 2 -type f

Wiki map

Documentation by job, not by folder structure.

The public site links polished HTML guides where they exist and repo wiki pages for deeper reference. The command pages remain command-first so they match how the launcher is actually used.

core/first-run

Base command vocabulary, launcher habits, and command categories.

Getting started Command reference

apps/drawer

Open the drawer, hide apps, restore apps, set default app slots, and maintain app groups.

Apps HTML guide Apps wiki

modules/lua

Use native modules, Termux modules, Lua modules, suggestion chips, and Lua config surfaces.

Module market Modules guide Lua modules guide

theme/presets

Use the settings hub, editable XML files, wallpaper auto-color, presets, and shareable looks.

Config files Preset sharing

termux/automation

Route scripts through Termux and keep automation narrow, explicit, and inspectable.

Termux Automation

support/safety

Permission explanations, release channels, and quick fixes for common setup issues.

mako@retui:~/docs$ cat release/downloads.env

Downloads

Choose the install path that matches your comfort level.

The Play Store build is the simplest supported install and update path. GitHub releases remain available for users who prefer direct APK installation or cannot use Play Store.

Play Store

Best for normal installs, automatic updates, and supporting continued development.

open PLAY_STORE_URL

GitHub APK

Direct download for testers, power users, and anyone who wants the free APK channel.

curl -LO app-github-release.apk

Release boundary: Play Store and GitHub artifacts are separate. Use the Play Store channel for the easiest consumer path, and GitHub when you intentionally want direct release assets.

mako@retui:~/docs$ ls modules/ lua/ termux/

Module marketplace

Browse module surfaces before opening implementation docs.

The module market collects built-in panels, Lua module recipes, Termux module recipes, and the safety boundary for installing shared module logic.

Browse modules

Start here when you want a module idea, install path, or source boundary instead of a full walkthrough.

open module-market.html

Build a module

Use the guide when you need exact commands for dock behavior, Lua controls, or Termux-backed script output.

open modules.html

mako@retui:~/docs$ ls presets/ ascii-lab/

Preset marketplace

Browse, create, and share terminal looks.

Presets are the bridge between product showcase and user documentation: they show what the launcher can look like and teach the exact flow for sharing a setup.

Browse presets

Open the preset market to inspect approved screenshots, compatibility notes, and downloads.

open preset-market.html

Create ASCII wallpaper

Use ASCII Lab to turn a source image into terminal-style text, PNG, or SVG output.

Support and release channels

Open development, practical reports.

Useful feedback includes the command used, visible output, Android version, build channel, and whether the issue affects Play Store, GitHub, or a local debug install.

Chat: Discord server for community discussion.
Community: Reddit for launcher posts and shared setups.
Email: DvilSpawn@gmail.com for direct feedback.
Issues: GitHub issues for reproducible bugs.
