Building my first rust crate
Ever since I started using terminal applications, I have wanted to try building my own. They are less complex than a web app, and don’t require any server to run[1]. In picking a problem to solve, I wanted something that would be beneficial to me, but also something that could realistically help others. Having explored vja as a command line tool for Vikunja, I thought it made sense to make a terminal user interface that performed similar functions. Ratatui seemed like a great library to use, although I was skeptical about having to use rust. With the help of chatgpt, I was able to get to a minimum viable product, and publish the app on crates.io.
