A highly configurable cross-platform (Windows) status bar written in Python.
Yasb (Yet Another Status Bar) is a highly configurable status bar written in Python using the Qt6 GUI Framework. The current goal of yasb is to bring a polybar/waybar-style status bar to the Windows platform. However, as yasb is written in Python + Qt6, it is cross-platform capable. With some minor adjustments and OS-specific widgets, yasb can also be configured to run on both Linux and Mac OSX.
Although yasb comes with default stylesheet and configuration files, the user is given complete control over how their status bar is structured and how it will look.
The config file allows for extensive configuration of one or more taskbars, whereas, the stylesheet used by yasb allows for complete control over how the bar and its nested widgets should look. Change everything from font and colours to rounded corners, padding and opacity.
For an example of the default bar configuration, see the image below:
- Multi-monitor and monitor-exclusive taskbars
- Multiple bars per monitor
- Top, bottom and centred bar alignment
- Full UI customisation via user-defined stylesheet
- Extensive configuration via a user-defined configuration file
- Config and stylesheet validation
- Configurable taskbar widgets
- Active Window Title (and other window information)
- Battery Widget with customisable
- Clock Widget with multi-time zone support
- Custom (command line) Widgets with JSON parsing
- Memory & CPU Monitor Widgets
- Komorebi WM Workspace Widget
- and more...
