XP Bar Enhanced uses one manifest. The client interface build is resolved to a product flavor, and that flavor activates the supported feature set.

Features

Multiple Bar Styles — None (Blizzard default), Classic, Flat, Vertical, Circular, Minimap Ring, Terminal, and Orb
Quest XP Overlay — See pending and completed quest XP directly on the bar
Session Tracking — Track XP gained, time played, levels gained, and XP/hour rate
Session Breakdown & Rate Smoothing — Session stats include quest XP vs other XP totals, with a rolling recent XP/hour rate for faster responsiveness

Secondary Source Selector — Choose Reputation, Housing Favor, Honor, or Profession as the secondary bar source (with a first/second/auto profession selector)
Main Bar at Max Level — Optionally repurpose the main bar to display the selected secondary source once you reach max level
