What is gDesklets?

gDesklets is an architecture that enables the use of "desklets" - small applications that sit on the desktop, providing a combination of visual appeal and practical functionality. These desklets can take the form of status meters, icon bars, weather sensors, news tickers, and a wide range of other customizable elements. The package includes a selection of initial desklets, and users can further expand the available options by installing the gdesklets-data package, which provides access to a wider variety of desklets. The flexibility of this system allows users to curate a desktop environment that meets their specific needs and preferences, blending aesthetics and utility
