# Nyan Tray IntelliJ Plugin
A little plugin for IntelliJ (and Android Studio, and other IntelliJ based IDEs)
to let you know when work is ongoing.
It shows a Nyan Cat **in your MacOS menu bar** whenever something is "ongoing" (loading, compiling, building, searching, analyzing...)
This will help you switch to another window temporarily while knowing at a glance when the task is finished.
When clicking on it, the total waiting time (today, this week, this month, this year, overall) is shown.
**Note: this has only been tested on macOS.** This uses the Swing SystemTray API so it may work on other OSes.
## Why?
To optimize your work/nonwork task switching ;)
A lot of people switch to their browser/slack/minesweeper/whatever window while the project
is compiling. Having a system-wide "ongoing progress" indicator allows to
know right away when it's time to go back to work, even from another window or space.
Also, knowing how much time you spend doing nothing waiting for your IDE may
be useful when asking your boss for a more powerful machine ;)
That's it!
## Install / Download
- Install it directly inside your IDE from the *Plugins* preferences (click on *Browse repositories...* and search for *Nyan Tray*).
- Or get the zip and install it manually (click on *Install plugin from disk...*): https://github.com/BoD/NyanTrayIntelliJPlugin/releases/latest
