Wonder Garden: A living garden that grows on your desktop

Hey Product Hunt.

I spend a lot of time working at my computer, and I wanted the desktop itself to feel a little less static and a little more alive.

That idea became Wonder Garden — a cozy desktop companion where plants actually become part of your workspace instead of living inside another app window.

With Wonder Garden you can:

Plant seeds and watch them grow in real time
Arrange plants on shelves around your desktop
Place them along window edges and around the Dock on macOS
Raise caterpillars and watch them become butterflies
Slowly build a garden that stays with you while you work, browse, or do something else

I wanted it to feel calm and unobtrusive — something that quietly lives alongside your normal workflow instead of constantly demanding attention.

Wonder Garden launches on November 15 for macOS and Windows via Steam.

I'd especially love feedback from people who spend most of the day at their computer:

Would you want a desktop companion like this to interact even more with your windows and apps, or would you prefer it to stay mostly in the background?

Thanks for checking it out!
