When you first look at Polybar especially it can be a bit overwhelming and you might not even know where to start with defining a custom module, however it's actually quite simple, so today I'm going to show you how to define your own custom script modules for Polybar so that you can rice your bar exactly the way you like it, I will do a separate video on IPC since it's an even bigger topic to cover.
