This is a helper program to show basic information in swaybar. See Sway a Wayland Compositor similar to i3 for more information.
The information shown includes:
- Load avg (avg number of jobs waiting) from /proc/loadavg
- Memory available, total and free memory from /proc/meminfo.
- Battery level in percent, if battery_id is provided.
- Date and time
It uses unicode characters to show symbols. So, make sure the swaybar is configured to display information using a nerd font. I recommend "RobotoMono Nerd Font Mono".
