About:
Ball is a minimalist utility that places a persistent, interactive ball in your macOS Dock. It serves as a playful distraction or a simple visual element that you can click and drag around your screen. The tool is designed for users who want to customize their desktop environment with a unique, low-utility gadget.
Key Features:
  • Adds a clickable, draggable ball directly to the Dock
  • Extremely lightweight with minimal system resource usage
  • Simple, single-purpose utility with no complex configuration
  • Native macOS integration for a seamless feel
Use Cases:
  • Adding a fun, interactive element to your Mac's Dock for distraction or amusement
  • Testing Dock customization or UI interaction concepts
  • Serving as a minimalist visual placeholder or widget
Alternatives:
  • DockUtil – DockUtil is for scripting Dock item management, whereas Ball is a standalone interactive item.
  • Custom Dock icons – Static icons lack interactivity; Ball provides a dynamic, draggable element.
