I want to make a #TUI to help our frontline support folk rapidly diagnose and fix problems with our #linux boxes in the field. It would run a few checks and throw up a dashboard to summarise the state of the system.
I've written exactly this app for a different system in #golang using the brilliant tview library¹. However the stripped binary is 6.3MB, hefty by patchy-iot-cellular-internet standards.
This might be a good starter project to write in #Rust
