citron — ditch your panel for some snazzy desktop notifications.
It is: - a non-intrusive alternative to panels. - extremely fast, thanks to libmacchina. - works across different distributions, window managers and desktop environments.
Set a keybinding to one or all of citron's functionalities (see --help), and watch it do its magic 🪄
Here's what this would look like on sway:
bash
bindsym $mod+Alt+d exec citron -d -t 5 # Date
bindsym $mod+Alt+u exec citron -u -t 5 # Uptime
bindsym $mod+Alt+b exec citron -b -t 5 # Battery
bindsym $mod+Alt+m exec citron -m -t 5 # Memory
bindsym $mod+Alt+n exec citron -n -t 5 -i wlan0 # Network
It can notify you about your: - [x] Date - [x] Uptime - [x] Battery - [x] Memory - [x] Network
citron needs the following packages to be able to display notifications:
cargo install citron
