Vendetta

Hello everyone! Let’s dive right in so I can work on my math homework so I don’t fail my calc test next week!

TUIzers

I COMPLETED THE TUIIIIII!!! I added a text entry box for people to manually enter the names of their new saves. I also stylised the highlighting a bit more, and , even though its not in the video, now, the color changes to green when you’re selecting a save. This was a really fun learning experience.

I originally wanted to make a TUI because one of the raters on my last project, leading zero util, complained about having to use a simple CLI and told me it wasn’t that good because of the lack of TUI, so this has been kind of a personal vendetta against that person to improve my software and user experience.

The Other Interface

This project isn’t just a CLI utility. The entire time I’ve been building this, I’ve wanted to enable others to make a frontend for it, whether it be on the web or a gui or some port of it in something. I’ve maintained a careful separation between lib and bin, with the exception that they are the same crate. For library users, dealing with my errors would be impossible since many of them are just strings and they are all just Box. Before throwing this on crates.io, I want to make error enums and stuff so people can do error matching.

Tap Tap

After completing error enums and stuff, I’m going to throw it on crates.io and make a github release so I can make a Homebrew tap. The last time I made a homebrew tap, I gave the project it’s own separate tap repo, but this time I’ll keep all my taps in a new tap repo on my GitHub instead of Codeberg for users.

That’s it for now! I’m excited to make error enums so I can have that skill under my belt as well! Also, I’ve reached the point where shipping would probably let me get a framework 12, which is very exciting for me.
