I've started work on the third iteration of bashtop->bpytop.
It's being written in C++ and will simply be called btop.
I'm aiming at releasing a beta version around August this year and will publish the repo when I've got the core functionality and structure ready for anybody that wanna help out.
This project is gonna take some time until it has complete feature parity with bpytop, since all system information gathering will likely have to be written from scratch without any external libraries.
And will need some help in the form of code contributions to get complete support for BSD and OSX.
If you got suggestions of C++ libraries that are multi-platform and are as extensive as psutil are for python, feel free to open up a new thread in Discussions, it could help speed up the development a lot.
Will post any updates about this project here until the repo is made available.
The make install command places the default themes in /usr/local/share/bpytop/themes.
If installed with pip3 the themes will be located in a folder called bpytop-themes in the python3 site-packages folder.
User created themes should be placed in $HOME/.config/bpytop/themes.
Let me know if you want to contribute with new themes.
Support and funding
You can sponsor this project through github, see my sponsors page for options.
Will not display correctly in the standard terminal (unless truecolor is set to False)!
Recommended alternative iTerm2
Will also need to be run as superuser to display stats for processes not owned by user.
OsX on Apple Silicon (arm) requires psutil version 5.8.0 to work and currently has no temperature monitoring.
Upgrade psutil with sudo pip3 install psutil --upgrade
256-color terminals are supported through 24-bit to 256-color conversion when setting "truecolor" to False in the options or with "-lc/--low-color" argument.
Wide characters (Are sometimes problematic in web-based terminals)
Also needs a UTF8 locale and a font that covers:
Unicode Block “Braille Patterns” U+2800 - U+28FF
Unicode Block “Geometric Shapes” U+25A0 - U+25FF
Unicode Block "Box Drawing" and "Block Elements" U+2500 - U+259F
Notice (Text rendering issues)
If you are having problems with the characters in the graphs not looking like they do in the screenshots,
it's likely a problem with your systems configured fallback font not having support for braille characters.
See Terminess Powerline for an example of a font that includes the braille symbols.
See comments by @sgleizes link and @XenHat link in issue #100 for possible solutions.
If text are misaligned and you are using Konsole or Yakuake, turning off "Bi-Directional text rendering" is a possible fix.
Characters clipping in to each other or text/border misalignments is not bugs caused by bpytop, but most likely a fontconfig or terminal problem where the braille characters making up the graphs aren't rendered correctly.
Look to the creators of the terminal emulator you use to fix these issues if the previous mentioned fixes don't work for you.
Notice (SSH)
Dropbear seems to not be able to set correct locale. So if accessing bpytop over ssh, OpenSSH is recommended.
(Optional OSX) coretemp (recommended), or osx-cpu-temp (less accurate) needed to show CPU temperatures.

I only maintain the PyPi package, so will not take responsibility for issues caused by any other install method!
PyPi (will always have latest version)
Install or update to latest version
pip3 install bpytop --upgrade
Mac OsX
Install with Homebrew
brew install bpytop
Optional coretemp (Shows temperatures for cpu cores)
brew install hacker1024/hacker1024/coretemp
Alternatively install with MacPorts
