A ready-to-use status bar for Wayland compositors such as Hyprland, Niri, MangoWC, and other wlroots-based setups, written in Rust with the iced GUI library. It ships batteries-included modules (workspaces, system tray, media player, notifications, CPU/RAM/network stats, audio, brightness, Bluetooth, VPN, power menu) with hot-reload configuration and an IPC socket for scripting and keybindings.
Use cases
- status bar for hyprland
- wayland compositor top bar
- niri status bar
- wlroots desktop panel
- rice my linux desktop with a status bar
- system tray and notification center for wayland
- ready-made wayland bar without writing scripts
- linux bar with media player and quick settings
When to choose
- You use Hyprland, Niri, MangoWC, or another supported wlroots-based Wayland compositor and want a working bar out of the box
- You want workspaces, tray, media, network, audio, brightness, and power controls bundled in one bar instead of assembling many scripts or plugins
- You value hot-reload configuration and flexible theming such as transparent islands, custom radius, margins, fonts, and per-monitor layouts
When to avoid
- You are on X11 or a desktop environment like GNOME or KDE that ships its own panel
- You rely on a large third-party module/plugin ecosystem or deeply custom scriptable modules beyond the built-in custom button/text and IPC commands
- Your compositor is not on the supported-compositors list and auto-detection fails
