htop

htop is an open-source program that runs in the terminal and serves as an easier-to-read, easier-to-use alternative to top, the standard process monitor on Unix-like systems. It displays the process list with colors and bar meters, and lets users sort, search and terminate processes with the keyboard or mouse.

It is widely used in server administration and development to check how system resources are being used.
