#2How "big" is it? I'm just wondering what space do these Electron apps take. It's great to see such "Windows" apps in Linux at last. I just hope it won't be 300MB per app.

#3My first thought was that Electron and Node would be pretty heavyweight for this use case. I'm curious to know if anyone who's tried it is seeing the app itself dominate a CPU. I'm hoping not, because it does look really nice!

#4Ugh... I haven't used this, but in general management GUIs are a cheap veneer over the goodness of Linux. You're still going to need the terminal when things break or just can't be done with the GUI.
I will admit that I started managing Linux through GUIs, but ultimately CLI utilities and configuration files lead to a deeper understanding and a wider set of options.
Run Arch Linux for a few months and you'll get over the textual interface hump.

#5Hi, I am oguzhaninan
I am rewriting the new version with c ++. It will use a maximum of 20 mb ram. In a very short time, I will release the new version with more features.

#6While it looks nice, I can't find any use in it :-/
I mean those desktop widgets displaying CPU/Mem usage integrate much better into the desktop. If you want to uninstall something you should better know what you are doing and the same goes for init jobs...
Don't get me wrong I love visual tools as long as they do something better than their cli equivalents. For example, I am a huge fan of filelight https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filelight because it enables quick insights about disk usage.

Looking forward to it because there are concerns that the current version on github is CPU inefficient (as you know).

This looks pretty good, thanks for putting it out there. I don't think this would provide much value for me personally but if I setup a Linux desktop for someone in the future it's definitely something I'll keep in mind.

Why not Rust :)?

#10Oh boy. Reminds me of the classic "Windows optimizers" complete with set of badges from various "quality websites". In case you are not familiar with the category, generally you were lucky if they only left your system in subtly half-broken state. Because the other, possibly more common, alternative was that the software was used to drop in a bucketful of malware.
