# Yambar # Yambar
**This project is not developed anymore, and this repository will be
archived in a near future**.
I do not have neither the time nor the will to work on this
anymore. Mainly because I do not use a bar myself anymore.
There are also technical difficulties, caused by the fact that yambar
was initially X11, and only later was Wayland support added.
This means I have to maintain a backend (X11) I have not used myself
in many years, as well as trying to work around technical limitations
imposed by the way both X11 and Wayland is supported, As my own use of
a bar has dwindled, the will to refactor and improve the backends has
disappeared.
Yambar has seen a lot of contributions, for which I am very
grateful. I hope that means someone is willing to pick up where I left
of, and continue working on yambar. If not, we at least had a good
run; the first commit was in late 2018, roughly 6½ years ago!
