Glowbara
Desktop overlay companion
Field notes · vol. 01
Glowbara lives as a desktop overlay: she walks the edges of this window, sits when she is tired, and follows the pointer if you ask. The site underneath stays fully usable.
Most companions hijack the screen. Glowbara does not. She is a fixed layer above whatever you are reading — this journal, a document, a shop — and she never steals the scroll. Click her to pet. Drag her somewhere kinder. Double-click to have her follow.
On this page she is already walking. Switch to Any page to see the same overlay sitting on a different document. Open Desktop to try the companion — a transparent always-on-top pet for Windows, Mac, and Linux.
Windows, Mac, and Linux
Glowbara is a separate app for your computer: a transparent window on top of everything. Clicks pass through except when you touch her. She walks the taskbar, sits, sleeps, and follows the pointer.
iPhone and iPad
She becomes her own icon. iPhone cannot overlay other apps the way a Mac bookmarklet can — this is the supported way to keep her on iOS.

Drag the chip onto your bookmarks bar. On any other page, click it once and Glowbara walks in. Click the chip here to copy the same snippet.
A click is a greeting. A drag lifts her off the page. Double-click toggles follow.
Wander keeps to the sill of the window. Roam lets her walk the whole viewport.
The overlay script is self-contained. If a site blocks remote scripts, she stays here.
