Hi everyone, first time posting a rice ever, it is not actually done, but I wanted to share with those, that like me, wanted to use eww as a bar but was not able, because it does not had a system tray.

The feature development is almost done, actualy I think it is just waiting to be merged. The feature is being develop by the Github user ralismark, and you can try it already by building it from ralismark’s branch.

Hope you’ll like my rice project, I’ll be back to post it again when it is finished.

edit: I just found out that ralismark’s fork is available on the AUR for those that don’t want to build it from source.

    How did you install it? Afaik you have to use rust nightly and compile it. I’m fine with compiling it but switching to rust nightly is something I’m not really sure if i’ts a good idea, since my package manager wouldn’t be managing rust stuff and I fear some things may break.
