## How to build it

This application was tested to compile with go v1.24.

```bash

that will produce binary *i3status-go*. You should place it to some dir intended for storing user binaries (~/.local/bin,
 ~/bin, or something else) and edit i3wm config according to
[manual](https://i3wm.org/docs/userguide.html#_configuring_i3bar) after editing i3wm config either run **i3status-go** by
hands and kill it or copy **i3status-go-example.json** to **$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/i3status-go.json** and adjust it to your
habbit.
