Hey guys! For a while I've been thinking about a quick, easy, accessible way to check the current steem price, and developed a simple Rainmeter skin (great little program for those of you unfamiliar with it) to do so
Rainmeter allows you to put 'skins' on your desktop, that do neat things (like pull the current price of steem from the coinmarketcap api)
So anyways, once you've downloaded and installed if you don't already have it, all you need to do is then download my Simple Steem Tracker, then go right click rainmeter in the bottom right hand corner of your desktop, and click 'manage'
from this window, click the 'Simple Steem Tracker' drop down menu, and click the .ini file, then click 'load'. By default, it will load the price in the top left corner of your desktop, so it may be covered by icons if you don't see it initially.
And voilà! The current price of steem, right on your desktop :)
I'm kind of new to this, and this is my first rainmeter skin so if anyone has any sort of feedback I would be happy to hear it! Hope you enjoy this neat little tool :)
I can also add volume, market cap, btc price, and other stats if anyone is interested :)
That's actually quite cool! :)
Thanks! It's been pretty cool starting up my computer and just seeing the price right there on my desktop haha
Yep, I'm generally not a fan of desktop gadgets and apps like this one, but I like having that info in such an accessible way.
Nice! I am looking for something like this. Did you made a newer (more advanced) version or is this the state of your art?
Thank you so much for sharing your things!
