xbobar
======
tl;dr: it's a desktop panel for your X session.
xbobar is a Javascript + HTML runtime for building desktop panels. At
its core, it's a QtWebKit widget, providing a simple API to its hosted
page for simple things such as reading files, network access and DBus.
The JS runtime provides a CommonJS environment, which includes high
level abstractions over the basic API. There is also RxJS, React and
JQuery.
With all this, you can build any kind of desktop panel you've dreamed
of, using only your favouritest web technologies, because everyone
loves the DOM.
# Incomplete
This is absolutely not anywhere close to being complete and usable.
Pull requests welcome.
# Building
You'll need Qt5 and libdbus installed and working. Substitute for your
preferred platform:
```sh
$ pacman -S qt5-base qt5-webkit libdbus
```
To build the binary and JSDoc:
```sh
$ qmake
$ make
$ make jsdoc
```
# Running
From your checkout:
```sh
$ ./build/xbobar --debug default.js
```
