Ball

The utility places a small, animated ball inside the macOS Dock. Users can drag the ball, causing it to bounce across the screen, and interact with it using two‑finger swipes, flicks, or other gestures. The ball is rendered in red and tracks collisions with screen edges, allowing users to count bounces or wall hits.

Designed for macOS, the application integrates with the Dock by estimating the position of its icon, so the ball can animate outward when activated. The implementation builds on earlier OS X Dashboard widgets and incorporates techniques for locating the Dock’s coordinates.

This tool is intended for users who want a lightweight, interactive visual element in their Dock, offering simple physics‑based entertainment without additional dependencies. It is distributed as a stable release for macOS.
