Description

Sends xmonad status information over D-Bus so desktop components such as Polybar can display workspace and window-manager state. It helps users build a more integrated minimal desktop without replacing xmonad itself.

It is intended for customized xmonad sessions and needs matching configuration in xmonad and the status bar. Installing it alone will not add a panel or change the layout; it supplies the communication layer used by that setup.
