## Features
Features of bottom include:
- CPU widget to show a visual representation of per-core usage. Average CPU display also exists.
- Memory widget to show a visual representation of both RAM and SWAP usage.
- Networks widget to show a log-based visual representation of network usage.
- Sortable and searchable process widget. Searching supports regex, and you can search by PID and process name.
- Disks widget to display usage and I/O per second.
- Temperature widget to monitor detected sensors in your system.
The compatibility of each widget and operating systems are, as of version 0.1.0, as follows:
| OS/Widget | CPU | Memory | Disks | Temperature | Processes | Networks |
| --------- | -------- | -------- | -------- | --------------------- | --------- | --------------------------------------------- |
| Linux | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ |
| Windows | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | Currently not working | ✓ | Partially supported (total RX/TX unavailable) |
| macOS | Untested | Untested | Untested | Untested | Untested | Untested |
