_StatusBarView_ is a base implementation providing functionality to draw a status bar.
_StatusBarView_ inherits from xref:tui/views/box.adoc[].

You can create a simple status bar with an item:

[source, java, indent=0]
----
include::{snippets}/StatusBarViewSnippets.java[tag=simple]
----

The constructor can take array form which allows to lay out simple
item definitions in a _dsl_ style:

[source, java, indent=0]
----
include::{snippets}/StatusBarViewSnippets.java[tag=viaarray]
----

Items support runnable actions which generally are executed when
item is selected. It can also get attached to a hot key.

[source, java, indent=0]
