Add chapters for the top bar and its panels, screenshots and recording, toggles/idle/screensaver, browsers, shell plugins, and networking, which collects the Wi-Fi, DNS, firewall, and Tailscale material that was spread across the FAQ, TUIs, and services chapters. Fill smaller gaps in the existing chapters: user hooks, autostart, menu extensions, printing, power profiles, factory reset, drive and user passwords, passwordless sudo, firmware updates, display text size, and the LocalSend share menu.

# TUIs
|
|
|
|
## Lazygit
|
|
|
|
[Lazygit](https://github.com/jesseduffield/lazygit) is a delightful alternative to something like the GitHub Desktop application, and it runs inside the terminal.
|
|
|
|
You can run it directly, by going to any directory managed by git and running `lazygit`. Or you can run it inside Neovim where it can be started with `Space G G`.
|
|
|
|
You hop between the different panes using `Tab`. In the Files pane, you select files for staging using `Space`, and then you can create a new commit using `c`. You can see all the commands available using `?`.
|
|
|
|
## Lazydocker
|
|
|
|
[Lazydocker](https://github.com/jesseduffield/lazydocker) is made in the same spirit like Lazygit, and also gives you a terminal interface for managing your containers and images.
|
|
|
|
You can start it with `Super + Shift + D`.
|
|
|
|
You stop a container using `s` or start/restart it using `r`. See all commands using `?`.
|
|
|
|
## Btop
|
|
|
|
[Btop](https://github.com/aristocratos/btop) is a beautiful resource manager that shows memory, CPU, disk, and network usage. It also lists all active processes, and allows you to manage them.
|
|
|
|
Omarchy calls it Activity, and you start it by hitting `Super + Ctrl + T`. It opens as a floating window, which you can tile with `Super + T`.
|
|
|
|
## Herdr
|
|
|
|
[Herdr](https://github.com/omacom-io/herdr) is a terminal workspace manager that gives you workspaces, tabs, and panes, and keeps them all running in a persistent session you can detach from and come back to later.
|
|
|
|
You start it (or reattach to your existing session) with `Super + Ctrl + Return`. Omarchy ships a Herdr configuration that mirrors its Tmux config, so the prefix key is `Ctrl + Space` here too. You can browse all the keybindings with `Super + Ctrl + K`.
|
|
|
|
## Fastfetch
|
|
|
|
[Fastfetch](https://github.com/fastfetch-cli/fastfetch) shows system information, like kernel version, uptime, theme, CPU, memory, and more. It's a successor to the popular neofetch tool.
|
|
|
|
Omarchy has packaged this as _About_ in the Omarchy menu (`Super + Space`).
|
|
|
|
## Disk Usage
|
|
|
|
When the drive fills up and you have no idea what's eating it, launch _Disk Usage_ from the app launcher (`Super + Space`). It's [dua](https://github.com/Byron/dua-cli) in interactive mode pointed at the whole file system, so you can walk down into whatever directory is the culprit, sorted biggest first, and delete from right inside it.
|
|
|
|
## Cliamp
|
|
|
|
[Cliamp](https://www.cliamp.stream/) is a retro terminal music player inspired by Winamp 2.x, complete with built-in radio stations for lo-fi beats. Launch it with `Super + Shift + Alt + M`, or from the Omarchy menu under _Apps_. Press `?` for the full keybinding list.
|
|
|
|
## What about Wi-Fi and Bluetooth?
|
|
|
|
You won't find TUIs for Wi-Fi and Bluetooth — those jobs belong to the Omarchy shell. Click the Wi-Fi icon in the top bar (or hit `Super + Ctrl + W`) to see networks and connect, and click the Bluetooth icon (or hit `Super + Ctrl + B`) to pair and connect devices. See [networking](34-networking.md) for the full story.
|
|
|
|
## Adding your own
|
|
|
|
Any terminal program can get the full app treatment. Go to _Install > TUI_ in the Omarchy menu (`Super + Space`), give it a name, a launch command, a window style, and an icon, and it'll show up in the app launcher like any other application. You can remove it again under _Remove > TUI_.
