Figures from each repo's GitHub metadata at analysis time.
Building from source requires Node.js and Rust installed.
ToeRings is a desktop system monitoring tool built with Tauri, styled to look like the Conky Seamod theme that inspired it. It shows live stats about your computer in a themeable on screen display, similar to what Conky does on Linux, but packaged as a cross platform desktop app for Linux, Windows, and macOS. The author describes it as a port of the Seamod Conky theme to Tauri, reusing Rust code from another system monitor called Bottom, and picked the name because it sounds like Tauri and contains the word rings. Installation differs by platform. On Linux you download a package for your distribution, such as a deb file for Debian and Ubuntu or an rpm file for Fedora, or run the AppImage directly without installing anything. On Windows you can install it through the Scoop package manager from the author's bucket, or download an NSIS installer or a portable zip file. On macOS you can install it with Homebrew, or download a build for Apple Silicon or a universal build and move the app into your Applications folder. Because the macOS builds are signed without being notarized, since that requires a paid Apple developer account, macOS will initially block the app and you need to approve it manually through Finder or System Settings before it will open. You can also build ToeRings from source if you prefer, which requires a recent version of Node.js and Rust. After cloning the repository you install dependencies and run the Tauri build command. Once installed, a preferences panel accessible from the app menu lets you configure how the monitor looks and behaves. Developers who want to work on the project can also run it directly in development mode instead of building a full package.
