#### A btop-style TUI for libvirt/KVM virtual machines

virt-btop is a btop-style terminal UI for libvirt/KVM virtual machines. It
talks to libvirt directly (no virsh) and shows per-VM CPU, memory, disk and
network activity with braille graphs, plus combined host/guest totals.

Connect the libvirt interface to let the snap reach the libvirt socket:
sudo snap connect virt-btop:libvirt
