Kooha

Kooha is a screen recorder for Linux with an intuitive, distraction-free interface. It is meant for quickly starting a recording without configuring a lot of settings first.

It can record microphone audio, desktop audio, or both, and it supports WebM, MP4, GIF, and Matroska output. You can record a monitor or a portion of the screen, choose the save location, toggle pointer visibility, set frame rate and delay, and enable experimental hardware-accelerated encoding.

Kooha is built with Rust, GTK4, and LibAdwaita, and uses PipeWire, xdg-desktop-portal, and GStreamer at runtime. It is GPL-3.0 licensed and distributed as a Flatpak on Flathub, so it runs in a consistent sandboxed environment across Linux distributions. The minimal interface keeps the focus on starting a recording quickly rather than configuring options.
