Mocka replaces MATE one component at a time, written from scratch and compatible with MATE along the way.
Mocka Dock
Pinned and running apps share one row of buttons. Pin by dragging from the menu, the desktop or the file manager, and right click any app for its actions, recent files and windows. Hover an app to see thumbnails of its windows.
Every component is new code, written from its own specification and sharing no code with MATE.
Built for FreeBSD and GhostBSD, with no Linux-specific assumptions.
Mix Mocka and MATE components while the transition happens.
Mocka is developed in the open. Pick the part that suits you.
Every component is a repository in the GitHub org. Open a pull request, or raise larger changes in Discussions first.
Install the alpha on GhostBSD with the Mocka Dock guide and report what breaks, with the steps that led there.
Share mockups, icons and interface ideas in Discussions.

Mocka is developed as part of GhostBSD and ships with it. While components are in alpha they are preinstalled but not turned on by default.
To try Mocka Dock, right click the panel, choose Add to Panel, and
pick Mocka Dock. On an older install, update your packages or run
pkg install mocka-dock first.
Window thumbnails arrive in the second Mocka Dock alpha.
The first Mocka component is out for testing.
