Sorry I didn't get to create a simple version of this yet.
Here is my menu, but this is quite specific and I use this a lot for experimentation which is why it requires the latest alpha 5.804 (and maybe also a relative current macOS - not sure whether this will work on older macOS)
This preset shows the menu when pressing ctrl+opt+cmt+x:

I'll create a tutorial on how to create these kind of menus sometime this week, that will make it more approachable. The main idea is to have one main menu that is being shown via some trigger, then have some more menus that are positioned relative to that main menu. To position a menu relative to some other menu these positioning options can be used:
In my example the additional menus are shown when hovering specific items in the main menu via the "on hover" action category (others are hidden at the same time via the same "on hover" trigger)
Some fancy stuff in this menu:
- A dynamic clipboard manager menu that is basically a quick access for BTT's main clipboard manager
- A folder widget that allows you to drop items on it that are then moved to your real downloads folder.
- A dynamic spaces menu that highlights the currently active space and allows to switch spaces or move windows to specific spaces
- Volume and brightness widgets that change volume / brightness when scrolling up/down
- A basic "now playing / music control" widget
- A kind of custom "dock" that shows some apps I have added, the background of the app items changes depending on whether that app is running
I'm currently working on making these advanced things more accessible, and this menu is something I use to test
