If you're missing some quick launcher functionality on your Linux distribution, there's a solution: Albert Launcher. With many many themes, plugins, and capabilities, Albert is a real replacement solution for those used to Mac OS X Spotlight, or Cortana search on Windows 10.

Let's see how to install, configure, and run it !

Here are the commands to install Albert (on debian-based distros):
sudo apt install software-properties-common
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:nilarimogard/webupd8
sudo apt update
sudo apt install albert
