How to have 'gaps' on dwmbar
The "applets" could be added with the systray patch if you want something graphical or with external utilities like trayer or stalonetray. It can also be done using dsblocks/dwmblocks for the status which support clickability but may need more tinkering if you want to show menus.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing Goblocks and dsblocks you can also consider the following projects:
dwmblocks - Rewrite of dwmblocks with added features including clickability, cursor hinting and color.
trayer-srg - trayer fork with multi monitor support, cleaned up codebase and other fancy stuff
