Neko — Project Notes

A free macOS menu bar app featuring a pixel sprite kitten that follows your mouse cursor across the screen.

Overview

Neko is a free macOS menu bar app. A tiny pixel kitten follows your mouse, stays on top of other windows, and never shows up in the Dock.

Features

  • Follows your cursor across the screen
  • Stays on top, including fullscreen apps
  • Menu bar only — no Dock icon
  • Size and speed settings that stick between launches

Tech Stack

  • Swift
  • SwiftUI
  • Xcode

How It Works

A small animation loop walks the kitten toward the cursor and picks a pose from a pixel sprite sheet.

What I Learned

Building Neko was a good excuse to learn menu bar apps and always-on-top windows on macOS. Most SwiftUI tutorials skip that side of AppKit.
