gotop is a terminal-based graphical activity monitor written in Go, inspired by gtop and vtop, showing CPU, memory, and process widgets with keyboard and mouse interaction. The original repository is no longer maintained; users should use the maintained fork at xxxserxxx/gotop.
Use cases
- monitor cpu and memory usage in the terminal
- view and kill processes from a tui
- watch per-core cpu graphs in a terminal
- a lightweight alternative to htop with graphs
- customize terminal monitor colorschemes
When to choose
- you want a graphical terminal system monitor on Linux, macOS, or FreeBSD
- you prefer mouse and keyboard navigation for process management
- you want a lightweight Go binary without dependencies
When to avoid
- you need an actively maintained tool - use the xxxserxxx/gotop fork instead
- you need Windows support
- you need remote server monitoring or alerting features
