Hi Product Hunt! 👋
I'm Moisés, the creator of Sideglass.
Like many of you, I use a secondary monitor setup (either vertical or horizontal). I noticed that most of the time, that screen ends up wasted—either displaying an empty browser tab, a half-hidden Slack window, or just sitting there doing nothing useful while you work on your main display.
That’s why I built Sideglass. It’s a clean, minimalist desktop application for Windows designed specifically to turn your secondary monitor into a useful dashboard. Everything important is always in sight without getting in your way.
The app is fully functional and you can download the installer right now. Here is what's already included:
- 🛠️ Native Hardware Monitor: Real-time CPU, RAM, GPU, and disk tracking (including temperatures).
- 📅 Google Calendar: Seamless integration using your private iCal URL.
- 🧊 Customizable Layout: Enter edit mode, drag widgets, and resize cards freely to fit your screen.
- 🧠 AI Dock & YouTube: Quick access to ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity, Copilot, and an embedded YouTube player.
- 🌦️ Local Weather & Notes: Automatic location weather (no API key needed) and quick local notes.
Sideglass is free for personal use and the source code is available on GitHub.
I'd love to get your feedback:
- What widget or integration should I build next?
- If you try it, how does it fit into your daily workflow?
