An experimental system monitoring application demonstrating a simple Tauri app built with Rust.

Minotop provides real-time system monitoring with a web-based interface. It displays CPU usage, memory consumption, and process information with configurable update interval.

• Real-time CPU and memory usage graphs
• Top processes by CPU usage
• Sortable process table
• Configurable update interval (250ms - 5s)
• Light and dark theme support
• Low CPU footprint and acceptable memory usage
• The minotop process is highlighted

• Rust toolchain
• See Tauri prerequisites for platform-specific dependencies

# Clone the repository
git clone <repository-url>
cd minotop

# Install Tauri CLI (if not already installed)
cargo install tauri-cli

cargo tauri dev

cargo tauri build

The built application will be in src-tauri/target/release/bundle/.

The backend is written in Rust using the sysinfo crate for system metrics collection. It emits real-time statistics to the frontend via Tauri's event system. The frontend is a single-page HTML application with vanilla JavaScript and Canvas-based graphs.
