history

Project history and usage

Stats is an open-source macOS system monitor that presents hardware and operating-system telemetry in the menu bar and optional widgets.

Project history

Stats was created by Serhiy Mytrovtsiy as an open-source macOS menu-bar system monitor. The Swift project grew into a modular monitor with hardware sensors, desktop widgets, multiple menu-bar readouts, and optional legacy fan control.

Adoption history

Stats is distributed as a downloadable macOS application and through Homebrew. The official GitHub project has accumulated a substantial contributor and user community, reflecting broad adoption among users who want menu-bar telemetry without a commercial monitoring suite.

How it is used

Users install Stats manually from a release disk image or with `brew install stats`, then enable and arrange monitoring modules in the application. Disabling expensive modules such as Sensors and Bluetooth can reduce its energy and CPU impact.

Why package nerds care

Stats is notable in package-manager culture as a polished, open-source macOS utility that exposes CPU, GPU, memory, disk, network, battery, sensor, and Bluetooth information from the menu bar. Its Homebrew availability makes a normally graphical utility reproducibly installable from the command line.
