System Monitor

This project is a system monitor similar to htop. It is a command-line tool that displays the system's CPU and memory utilization, as well as a list of processes. The project is written in C++ and uses the ncurses library to display the information in the terminal.

Dependencies

Install the ncurses library within your Linux environment: sudo apt install libncurses5-dev libncursesw5-dev

You also need cmake and make installed

Make

This project uses Make. The Makefile has four targets:

• build compiles the source code and generates an executable
• format applies ClangFormat to style the source code
• debug compiles the source code and generates an executable, including debugging symbols
• clean deletes the build/ directory, including all of the build artifacts

Get Started

1. Clone the project repository

2. Build the project: make build

3. Run the resulting executable: ./build/monitor
