Python System Monitor Pro with GUI

A real-time system monitoring tool built with Python. It tracks your resource usage (CPU, RAM, Disk), shows disk partition details, and identifies the most resource-hungry processes.

Features

• Global Resource Tracking: Real-time progress bars for total CPU, RAM, and Disk usage.
• Partition Monitoring: Automatically detects and displays usage for all connected drives (including USBs).
• Top Processes: Shows the top 5 applications consuming the most CPU power.
• Real-Time Logs: View a live feed of system status logs.
• Error Tracking: A dedicated window to see only system warnings and alerts (Thresholds: CPU/RAM > 80%, Disk > 90%).
• Cross-Platform: Works on Windows, Linux, and macOS.

Installation

1. Install Python: Make sure you have Python 3 installed.
2. Install Dependencies: You need the psutil library to get system stats.

   pip install psutil

   (Note: tkinter usually comes pre-installed with Python on Windows. On Linux, you might need sudo apt install python3-tk).

How to Run

Open your terminal or command prompt in the project folder and run:

python main.py

How It Works (For Education)

• Backend (psutil): We use the psutil library to ask the Operating System for numbers (like "What is the CPU percentage?").
• Frontend (tkinter): We use tkinter to draw the window and widgets.
• Threading: The monitoring logic runs in a background thread (daemon). This ensures the interface remains responsive and doesn't freeze while fetching data.
• Dynamic Update: The UI updates every 2 seconds by scheduling a task on the main thread using root.after().
