Übersicht

Übersicht lets macOS users place small, customizable widgets on the desktop that run system commands and show their output in real time. Each widget is defined with HTML5‑based markup and JavaScript/React JSX, allowing the display of text, tables, charts, or other visual formats that adapt to different screen sizes. The framework handles command execution, refresh intervals, and rendering, so the widget can update automatically at a specified frequency.

The tool is aimed at developers, system administrators, and power users who want a quick visual reference to system status, logs, or any command‑line information without opening a terminal window. Because widgets are built with familiar web technologies, creating or modifying them requires only basic HTML, CSS, and JavaScript knowledge.

Übersicht is an open‑source, macOS‑only application released under a stable maturity level. It can be downloaded for free, and the project accepts sponsorships and donations to support ongoing maintenance.
