Dhruva is not just another dock for GNOME. It offers smooth icon magnification, preset themes, wallpaper-based colors, more than 20 icon animations, window effects, floating placement and plenty of customization options.

You can even add folders and a clock directly to the dock, configure its behaviour for multiple monitors, and export your settings before moving to another Linux system.
