Workspace display

This is a normal feature in some normal status bars. But in Polybar it is not true! You can get status of workspace from this feature. Try it!

This feature is like the images and the table below.

Current ws	Some windows exists	Empty

Package update monitor

It runs every 30 minutes.

This is very good feature. You can get whether there are some package updates or not. If you see "smile" and 0, that means no package updates found. On the other hand if you see "frown and more than 0, that means some package updates found. And we use a named pipe (located /tmp/.polybar-checkupdates-log) for this feature so we can immediately make the face smile again showing spinning animation after finishing the update.

Needs to be updated	Up to date	Sync failed

This animation shows you when the frown face change into smile,

You'll want to update to see the smile!

Backlight control slider

You can see how bright your screen is. And you can slide it and change the brightness of your screen backlight by pressing brightness button on your keyboard or scrolling with mouse wheel/touchpad.

Now let me show you the way to change the brightness by scrolling with mouse wheel/touchpad.

ALSA volume control slider

You can see how loud the speaker sounds from the color of bar or the muted icon.

Muted	Too quiet or good	A bit loud (Warning)	Too loud (Danger!)

And as the same as "Backlight control slider" you can also slide it and change the volume by scrolling with mouse wheel/touchpad.

And also you can make it mute/unmute by clicking with your mouse cursor.

These are the easiest way to control the volume but of cource you can do the same by pressing volume control button on your keyboard too!

Network connection monitor, inbound/outbound speeds

You can get information about how fast your network speed.

CPU monitor

You can get information about how many and well CPUs works, easily and immediately.

Battery monitor

You can see how much remains battery by the color and the value.

Charging	Good	Low battery	Too low battery
