Top comment

Hi, I'm Byren, the developer of AirStats. It's a minimal, elegant system monitor designed for people who want useful live system information without leaving another large application running all day.

Airstats shows CPU, memory, GPU, network, disk, battery, temperature, top processes, and uptime in the menu bar, a dropdown panel, or an optional desktop widget.

It's written in native Swift and reads directly from Mach, IOKit, sysctl, and CoreWLAN. It runs as one process with no helper daemon, launch agent, Dock icon, analytics, or telemetry.

AirStats is intentionally simpler than some of the other options out there. I wanted to nail the core stuff and keep the app as light as possible on system resources.

It's free, open source, and MIT licensed. If you try it, I'd genuinely love to hear what feels missing or what you'd want me to add next! 😁
