## What it is
YASB Reborn is a highly configurable, open-source status bar for Windows 10/11 written in Python, with 50+ widgets, YAML configuration, and CSS theming. It integrates with tiling window managers like GlazeWM and Komorebi and supports system monitors, media controls, and custom scripts.

## Use cases
- replace the Windows taskbar with a customizable status bar
- show workspaces and window titles for GlazeWM or Komorebi
- monitor CPU, GPU, memory, and battery from a desktop bar
- build a riced Windows desktop with custom themes
- display weather, clock, and media controls in a top bar
- configure a multi-monitor status bar via YAML and CSS

## When to choose
- you want a deeply customizable, hackable status bar on Windows 10/11
- you use tiling window managers like GlazeWM or Komorebi and need workspace widgets
- you prefer YAML config plus CSS styling over closed-source alternatives
- you want a lightweight, community-driven, free tool

## When to avoid
- you need a status bar for Linux, macOS, or other platforms
- you want a zero-configuration, out-of-the-box taskbar replacement
- you prefer not to edit config files or CSS to customize appearance
