Not only does it make your desktop look better, it can also provide functionality and present your Mac's information in a simple fashion. Still, regardless of whether or not you are an expert at coding or just an average mac user, you should really give this app a shot.

And since this app supports a wide range of coding languages, it opens up your room to code even more creative widgets.
And the reason for this app not having a lot of pre-made widgets is probably the fact that it's been nearly 3 years since it's release and it hasn't quite gotten much attentions yet, and that's why I am sharing this app with you guys today.Īs I've mentioned above, I am no where near to be comfortable writing scripts or doing coding, but I do think there's a whole lot of you out there that are confident and comfortable with coding.
What that means is that if you can't find a good widget you would like to use you will probably have to develop it yourself. My only complain about this app is probably the fact that there isn't really a whole lot of pre-made widgets for you to download. Btw this is the link to the widget download site. The second is iCalBuddy, a command line utility that lets you access events and to do items without having to open iCal.
The first is GeekTool, a preference pane that allows you to display files, images and shell scripts on the Desktop. It's a really cool app I gotta say, although I am not a coding expert or anything but I mean hey, I was able to mess around with the codes and do some slight adjustments to the widgets. Get GeekTool and iCalBuddy To set this up you need to download two (free) applications. I found it several days ago and have since dumping hours and hours messing around with it. As you can probably tell from the title, this is a widget app meant to help you customize your desktop.
