Eww

Elkowars Wacky Widgets is a standalone widget system made in Rust that allows you to implement your own, custom widgets in any window manager.

Documentation and instructions on how to install can be found here.

Current maintenance status

To those of you looking at the current slow progress, commit frequency and general activity: Don't worry, eww is not dead! I'm currently in the process of focussing on my bachelors thesis, thus work on eww has currently slowed down significantly. I hope to find more time to continue working on new features in the not-so-distant future.

Thanks for sticking around!
