Rainmeter

Rainmeter is a powerful and extensible desktop customization platform for Windows that lets users display customizable skins and widgets on their desktop to show information such as system statistics, time, weather, application shortcuts, and more. With a modular architecture, Rainmeter allows users and creators to build or install “skins” using simple INI configuration files combined with Lua scripting and graphics to display text, images, meters, and interactive controls. It runs with minimal system overhead and stays resident in the Windows notification area, updating widgets in real time based on system performance, network conditions, or custom triggers. Rainmeter’s open-source codebase and large community ecosystem mean that thousands of user-created skins are available for download, enabling anything from minimalistic time displays to elaborate animated dashboards.
