CLUSTER DESKTOP-DASHBOARD-MONITORING · 21 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2025-12-26
Desktop system monitoring dashboards
This cluster comprises desktop applications that monitor system resources, processes, services, and performance, often with real-time dashboards, gauges, and overlays. Entry counts were sparse from December 2020 through mid-2025, then rose to a steady one to three per month from December 2025 to June 2026. Pulse leads on traction with one star, while usb-dashboard and pc-system-monitor have zero stars.
Entry timeline
ENTRY TIMELINE
Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.

Two labels per entry, never collapsed into one: how it was built, and who stands behind it. Counted over the 20 listed below. Unlabelled means nothing has decided yet — not that the answer is small.
