The status bar shows handy information. That include helpful information about the current file, the current vault, or the current status like time and date.

Status items are added both by core plugins and community plugins.

Some items are interactive but some are purely informational. For example, the Word count plugin adds the word and character count that’s not clickable, and the Sync plugin adds an icon that both shows the sync status as well as shows the sync log upon being clicked.
