First devlog on Slowfetch!

  • I’m starting a new project, Slowfetch, which is basically a simple CLI fastfetch/neofetch copy that reads system files and runtime metrics and outputs them in an organized and visually appealing list
  • This is my first Rust project too, so I spent a good chunk of this time learning and getting familiar with its basic concepts, Cargo, the documentation, and how it actually works
  • I’m currently only running it in a Debian VM for testing (it will be available for other distros and Windows/macOS in the future), so I also spent some time setting up VS Code’s remote ssh and installing packages in the VM
  • Right now it only reads username, hostname, and OS info from the /etc directory and runtime metrics from /proc and outputs a simple list that’s somewhat color coded
  • Rust is actually not as hard as I thought it would be once I got kinda used to it, so I’m pretty excited to implement a ton of other features for this project!
