Overview

I built CTL Dash because I wanted to support the new Cosmic desktop environment when it was brand new and to contribute to the desktop Linux ecosystem. CTL Dash allows you to manage systemd services - start/stop/enable/disable/logs. It's a native COSMIC app written in Rust with the native Libcosmic. It communicates with systemd through the D-Bus.
