corecoding/Vitals: A glimpse into your computer's temperature, voltage, fan speed, memory usage and CPU load.

Vitals ====================================

Vitals is a GNOME Shell extension for displaying your computer's temperature, voltage, fan speed, memory usage, processor load, system resources, network speed and storage stats in your GNOME Shell's top menu bar. This is a one stop shop to monitor all of your vital sensors. Vitals uses asynchronous polling to provide a smooth user experience.

This value configures the list of sensors that show up in the panel. To specify a sensor name, click on the extension to show the drop-down menu, then take the category label and the label of the individual sensor, convert them to snake_case, and format them like this: _category_sensor_`.|
