matrix-top
htop meets The Matrix — a cyberpunk terminal process monitor with live falling code rain.
Key Value Proposition
Instantly visualize CPU and memory load through real-time, color-coded Matrix-style streams, with zero dependencies and zero screen flicker.
Summary
matrix-top is a cyberpunk-styled terminal process monitor written in 100% pure Node.js with zero dependencies. It reads the Linux /proc filesystem directly and renders double-buffered, flicker-free animations in which process data falls as color-coded code rain. Install it globally with npm and launch 'matrix-top' from any terminal to inspect CPU and memory load, search and sort processes, and terminate processes on the spot.
Proof Points
- 100% pure Node.js with zero dependencies — reads the Linux /proc filesystem directly.
- Double-buffered render engine built on raw ANSI escape codes for flicker-free animation and extremely low CPU utilization.
- Full process-management toolkit: pause/freeze, search/filter, sort-field selector, and SIGTERM termination via F9 or k.
