plank
Plank is meant to be the simplest dock on the planet. The goal is to provide just what a dock needs and absolutely nothing more. It is, however, a library which can be extended to create other dock programs with more advanced features.

Its the best Dock software for linux, I loved it. Its simple, light weight. Perfect for customizing your desktop. I am using it in Linux Mint 19.3 and everything is working so smooth and till now. I wish if they can allow users to install some themes. That will be like cherry on the top.
Works perfectly on Linux Mint 19.2, looks great, easy to use. Doesnt have many functions, but then again that's what makes it so easy to use.
It only gets 3* because #1 there's no way to add an applet to work as an Applications Launcher/System Menu by myself, I have to rely on other people's themes to do that; #2 intellihide needs a lot of improvement, it keeps on showing up when it shouldn't (ie when using Steam in fullscreen mode and hovering over STORE makes Plank show up); #3 If you're on Linux Mint, try logging out of your account, then log back in. For some reason, Plank takes much longer to show upon logging back in to my session than it does after my machine is done booting up. Devs, please update this application.
Nice, flexible dock. For those having trouble with settings for plank, press CTRL + right click anywhere within the plank.
Nice software; remember that for settings you simply need to execute plank --preferences
Has a bug that after initial load up, when log out, log back in lose functionality in mint 19.
No settings and doesn't uninstall properly, was still running after removing, still have a defunct process running from it.
Two issues: 1. Can't drag and drop a project folder on apps, say, Atom. 2. On Cinnamon, terminal launched using universal keyboard shortcut is shown separate from the one pinned on the dock. On the plus side, really clean and lightweight. IntelliHide is a great behavioral feature.
