I don’t think I can work on this project any further. Feel free to use it, and I’d be really glad if someone wants to contribute and improve it.

Just on Top

Open-source Python application for display a text always on top.

It stays on top even when switching desktops/workspaces!

Development

1. Virtual environment

Create a virtual environment in project folder:

python3 -m venv venv

Activate the virtual environment

source venv/bin/activate

or for Windows

.\venv\Scripts\Activate.ps1

Check if it activated

which python3

or for Windows

python -c "import sys; print(sys.executable)"

If the directory shows the current project folder, it means it activated.

2. Install packages

Run this to install packages needed

pip install -r requirements.txt

Notes

Change icon

Go to where the package placed:

customtkinter\assets\icons

Then replace the default .ico file with a different one with the same name.

Deployment

Script:

pyinstaller --noconsole --onefile main.py --icon=assets/jot_icon.ico --add-data "themes/dark_theme.json;themes" --add-data "themes/light_theme.json;themes"
