bottom is a cross-platform graphical process and system monitor created by Clement Tsang, designed to give administrators, developers, and power users an at-a-glance view of CPU, memory, disk, network, temperature, and sensor statistics in a single customizable terminal dashboard. Written in Rust, it runs natively on Windows, macOS, and Linux, consuming minimal resources while rendering real-time data through a responsive TUI that supports mouse interaction and Vim-style keyboard navigation. Users can filter, sort, and search running processes; expand tree views to reveal child threads; freeze historical graphs to inspect spikes; or export snapshots in CSV for later analysis. Typical use cases include troubleshooting overloaded servers, profiling game or build performance, verifying container limits on dev laptops, and monitoring headless rigs over SSH without launching a full desktop environment. Since its first public commit the project has issued 41 tagged versions, with the current stable release being 0.12.3, each refining widgets, adding themes, improving battery reporting, and extending sensor support for ARM and x86 hardware. Configuration is handled through a simple TOML file that lets teams pre-define layouts, color schemes, and alerting thresholds for consistent observability across workstations. As an open-source utility in the System Monitoring category, bottom integrates well with existing scripts and launchers, starting instantly from PowerShell, Command Prompt, WSL, or any POSIX shell. The software is available for free on get.nero.com, with downloads provided via trusted Windows package sources such as winget, always delivering the latest version, and supporting batch installation of multiple applications.
