## Conky
[](https://travis-ci.org/brndnmtthws/conky)
**Conky** is a free, light-weight system monitor for X, that displays
any kind of information on your desktop.
Grab the [latest release from GitHub](https://github.com/brndnmtthws/conky/releases/latest).
### Features
Conky can display more than 300 built-in objects, including support for:
* A plethora of OS stats (uname, uptime, **CPU usage**, **mem
usage**, disk usage, **"top"** like process stats, and **network
monitoring**, just to name a few).
* Built-in **IMAP** and **POP3** support.
* Built-in support for many popular music players ([MPD][],
[XMMS2][], [BMPx][], [Audacious][]).
* Can be extended using built-in [**Lua**](lua) support, or any of your
own scripts and programs ([more](Lua Interface)).
* Built-in [**Imlib2**][Imlib2] and [**Cairo**][cairo] bindings for arbitrary drawing
with Lua ([more](wiki/Lua-API)).
... and much much more.
Conky can display information either as text, or using simple progress
bars and graph widgets, with different fonts and colours.
