I've recreated the iPadOS status bar! It gives macOS a bit of a lighter feel.
Clicking the app menu opens the ⌘? menu for menu bar search (or could open Raycast's equivalent).
Clicking the app menu with option held reveals the full menu bar in a context menu.
The clock is generated with Javascript.
The battery icon has been added standalone to the right of the Menu Bar Status Items, to get it to the right of the control centre button.
The app menu is generated using AppleScript.
Scripts are configured to run when the focused app changes, and on the minute.
Currently, the menu bar only shows on the active monitor. I'm not sure there's a way to have two instances of a persistent menu short of copy & paste.
Currently, the background looks a bit off as it's stretching my wallpaper. I'd love a way to make it appear transparent by mirroring the wallpaper underneath.
