# OptimaWatch

OptimaWatch is a real-time system performance tracking application designed to monitor key metrics such as CPU usage, memory usage, disk usage, system uptime, load average, and network traffic. It is built using Python with `npyscreen` for a graphical user interface in the terminal and `psutil` for gathering system metrics.

## Features

- **CPU Usage**: Monitor the percentage of CPU utilization.

- **Memory Usage**: Track the percentage of used memory.

- **Swap Usage**: View the swap memory usage.

- **Disk Usage**: Monitor the disk usage for the root partition.

- **System Uptime**: Display the system uptime in hours, minutes, and seconds.

- **Load Average**: Show the average system load over the last 1, 5, and 15 minutes.

- **Network Traffic**: Monitor the amount of data sent and received.

## Installation
