I've looked at the source code for budgie-desktop, and to implement in valac, c is naturally hard me not knowing anything about c. And not being able to get a build of budgie-desktop running with my machine. So I've used nodejs
Install
npm install -g budgie-launcher-super
System Dependcies
dconf, gtk-launch, xdotool, wmctrl
I've also made a AUR package at https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/nodejs-budgie-launcher-super/
API
# key bindings setup in keyboard shortcuts
