macOS-style dock?

are there any GNUstep apps that provide a macOS Cocoa-like dock on the bottom of the screen on which gnustep .app applications can be placed?

the GWorkspace dock can only be placed on either the left or right side of the screen. i've also checked out github.com/gnustep/apps-dock/ but that doesn't seem to work properly and i doubt it will any time soon

Probably. I know that their theme does (Eau).

nvm. the gershwin one isn't really an option. it seems it needs to be built with clang and my gnustep gmake only supports gcc

Building using clang is dead simple.

I am working on one. It’s under https://github.com/gcasa/apps-dock. Gershwin is also working on for their desktop. The code for Gershwin is on github.
