Score: 6.0/10 (Innovation: 5, Technical: 7, Documentation: 7, Utility: 5)

SKrellM is a suckless, dependency-free rewrite of gkrellm that displays system monitors on your desktop. It's a single-process, multiplatform application with a small codebase, theme support, and runtime backend detection for SDL, X11, and GDI. Interesting for its minimalist approach and portability.

Target audience: desktop users, system administrators, developers interested in minimal software
