Google search “conky”. Not sure how easy it is to configure, though. Good luck!

Setting up and configuring conky is a bit outside this forum’s purpose and can take lots of time to get just right. I suggest looking at a vast thread on ubuntuforums.org that displays various conkys along with their codes -

sudo apt install conky-all should start you off. Then type conky in a terminal window to see the rather crude (but OK) conky that ships with most forms of ubuntu. Then press Ctrl-C to quit that command and vanish the conky.
