Community Rules
Follow the Code of Conduct
All posts on pop_os must adhere to the Pop!_OS community Code of Conduct. https://github.com/pop-os/code-of-conduct
Be helpful
Posts to pop_os must be helpful. When responding to a user asking for help, do not provide tongue-in-cheek responses like "RTM" or links to LMGTFY. Linking to direct sources that answer the asker's question is fine, but it's advised to provide some explanation as to how you got to that source.
Critique should be constructive
We within the Pop!_OS community welcome helpful criticism or ideas on ways to improve. However, basic "It's bad" or other simple negative comments don't help anyone fix anything. When voicing a complaint about something, try to point out ways the complaint could be improved or worked around, so that we can make a better product for it.
This rule applies to both Pop!_OS and its projects as well as other products available from third-parties.
Don't post malicious "advice"
It can be funny to joke about malicious commands, however this is not the venue for it. Do not advise users to run commands which will lock up their systems, steal their data, or erase their drive. Examples of this include (but are not limited to) fork bombs, rm, etc.
Posts violating this rule will be removed, even if the post is clearly in jest. Repeated offences may lead to a ban. You may understand that the command isn't serious, but a new user might not.
No personal attacks
Posts making a personal attack on any user will not be tolerated.
No hate speech
Hate speech of any kind will not be tolerated. Any violations will be removed, and are grounds for a ban.

There's an installation and setup guide here.
At this precise moment, if you want to try out the stacked windows features, you have to add the stacking branch to the system with
sudo apt-manage add popdev:stacking. When the branch is merged you'll have to remove it withsudo apt-manage remove popdev-stacking.Coming from Gnome and macOS, there are certain menu bar widgets I would really love to port over or create from scratch.
Primarily, I would like to have system stats (CPU, RAM, Disk, temperature) with graphs (similar to iStats on macOS and Vitals on Gnome). Are there any developer documentation or a sample repository that 3rd party devs can look at?
Thank you! I am very excited to start on it!
