Menu Bar

A menu bar that stays out of the way.

Background

Many apps cluttered my menu bar, managing these was difficult and I barely used any, so I decided to clear it up.

Clarity

Like on my iPhone, the time is on the left, Wi-Fi and battery on the right.

Hover

Hover the bar and the menus slide in, only when I need.

Left

The time and the app you're in.

Right

Sound, Wi-Fi and battery.

Contextual menu

A stop button while recording, a yellow battery in Low Power Mode, and only apps I select.

Battery

Green while charging, yellow in Low Power Mode, red at 20%.

How it's built

Built with Claude, wrote in Swift. Quit to bring the old bar back.
