TuxManager monitors and manages Linux processes in a Qt6 application modeled on Windows Task Manager.
About TuxManager
TuxManager is a Linux task manager built with Qt6. It is modeled on the Windows Task Manager and is intended to give deeper visibility into system processes, performance metrics, users, and services. The interface includes a process list, a process tree, and views for CPU, memory, GPU, disk, and swap usage, along with users and services.
The project is open source under GPL-3.0-or-later. Its stated goals are a small codebase and low resource use, with minimal dependencies beyond Qt. Prebuilt packages are listed for Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora, and EL-based systems, and there are also options for Arch Linux, Nixpkgs, a Nix flake, and an AppImage. The directory lists both Linux and Windows as platforms, but the project page describes it as a GNU/Linux application and gives only Linux installation instructions. Pricing is unknown.
