说到动态壁纸软件,相信很多人都听说过或用过 Wallpaper Engine, 这是 Steam Store 一个好评如潮的壁纸软件,售价为 18 元。我之前也一直在使用,当然今天介绍的是另外一个壁纸软件 Lively Wallpaper。
1. Lively Wallpaper
Lively is a live wallpaper software that is completely open source and free. It is mainly developed by Dani John. It supports users to set up animated desktop wallpapers and screen savers, and supports multiple displays. Developed using.NET core, currently Lively's core is written in WPF, while the UI uses WinUI3.

Using Lively Wallpaper is very simple and convenient. It also supports setting pictures, videos, web pages, Unity, Godot games as wallpapers.

2. screen saver

Lively also supports setting up Windows screen savers.
3. automation

Lively can also control wallpaper and customization by passing in command-line parameters.
4. Lively API

Lively provides a powerful API that makes it easy to obtain mouse, keyboard and other events, as well as system information, allowing developers to create interactive wallpapers.
5. Customize taskbar

Lively also supports custom task bars and Win 11. It has a selectable theme, including transparency, blur, Gaussian blur, semitransparent, etc., allowing your task bar to blend into desktop wallpaper!
6. development history
In fact, Lively has been under development for several years, but this development process is quite magical. In order to pursue high performance and smoothness, the author has rewritten the UI in the order of Winform -> WPF -> UWP -> WinUI3 in recent years.
I wonder if Microsoft will launch a new UI framework next year, haha...
7. download and install

- Windows Store
