i3blocks

This has become an incredible big collection of blocks in use with i3wm. It can also be an inspiration of how to do stuff in bash.

Maintained by the Community

I am not using i3 on my laptop anymore and thus I've started to transfer the maintainence to the Community. You can apply for maintaining it here. I've tried merging it back with i3blocks-contrib but there seems to be no interest.

Requirements

• All scripts are written in bash. Every script should be optimized for performance.
• font-awesome is required to display special glyphs:
  • apt install fonts-font-awesome for Debian / Ubuntu

WARNING:

Some scripts (like display) also change your computers behaving! Please be very careful when you include those into your i3blocks.
