Lyvoxa Stellar is a terminal-based system monitoring application for Linux that combines process management with graphical resource statistics.
Its interface presents system activity using coloured gauges, charts and tables, providing an alternative to traditional text-only monitoring utilities.
Users can inspect running processes, examine resource consumption and perform basic process management operations from the keyboard. The application is designed for terminal users who want a combination of visual information and familiar system administration controls.
Lyvoxa Stellar also provides selectable colour themes. Its historical graphs help users identify changes in processor, memory and network activity over recent monitoring intervals.
The developer has archived the project and no longer provides maintenance or security updates. Its source remains available for reference and existing installations.
This is free and open source software.
