New release of my opensource project to help you build menu bar apps.
This release features a lot of new features, but I want to highlight two:
- Shortcuts Plugin - allows you to create menu bar apps from Shortcuts app
- Ephemeral Plugin - allows you to create a transient menu bar app, i.e. for notification
1. SwiftBar has more plugin types, i.e. quite a bit more flexible and covers more usecases
2. SwiftBar is more actively maintained
3. SwiftBar has a bunch of minor\quality of life features, such as Notifications suppport, integration with Shortcuts, extensive URL-scheme, support for custom Plugin Repositories(useful in a company setting).
4. The only major feature that SwiftBar lacks, comparing to bitbar\xbar is built-in parametrization support
