Annotation tool

Satty is a modern screenshot annotation tool

Satty is a screenshot annotation tool inspired by Swappy and Flameshot.

This is free and open source software.

Features include:

  • Very simple and easy to understand toolset (like Swappy).
  • Fullscreen annotation mode and post shot cropping (like Flameshot).
  • Extremely smooth rendering thanks to HW acceleration (OpenGL).
  • Working on wlroots based compositors (Sway, Hyprland, River, …).
  • Minimal, modern looking UI, thanks to GTK and Adwaita.
  • Be a playground for new features (post window selection, post paint editing, …).
