SysTune is a lightweight and efficient GTK-based system settings manager built in C for Linux. It provides an all-in-one interface for managing essential system configurations such as:
Display settings (resolution, brightness, themes)
Audio controls (volume management)
Connectivity options (Bluetooth, WiFi)
Autostart applications
Security settings (firewall, SSH management)
Default applications
In addition to these features, SysTune allows users to:
Configure user permissions by modifying group memberships
Set custom keyboard shortcuts for improved workflow
Save settings in a configuration file for easy backup and restoration
SysTune is designed to be independent of any desktop environment, making it an excellent choice for users of both full-featured desktops like GNOME and KDE as well as lightweight window managers such as i3, Sway, Openbox, and DWM.
There are only a few system settings applications available for Linux, but most are tied to specific desktop environments, making them unusable across different setups. Others require multiple separate applications to manage different settings. SysTune solves this by providing a single, unified solution for all essential system configurations while being completely desktop-independent. This ensures that users can manage their settings effortlessly, regardless of whether they use a full desktop environment like or a lightweight window manager without compatibility concerns or extra dependencies.
