Onefetch is a command-line Git information tool written in Rust that displays project information and code statistics for a local Git repository directly on your terminal. The tool is completely offline, no network access is required. By default, the repo's information is displayed alongside the dominant language's logo, but you can further configure onefetch to instead use an image, on supported terminals, text input, or nothing at all. It automatically detects open source licenses from texts and provides the user with valuable information like code distribution, pending changes, number of dependencies (by package manager), top contributors (by number of commits), the size on disk, creation date, LOC (lines of code), etc. Onefetch can be configured via command-line flags to display exactly what you want, the way you want it to: you can customize ASCII/Text formatting, disable info lines, ignore files & directories, and output in multiple formats (JSON, Yaml), etc.

Scooter is an interactive find-and-replace terminal UI app. Search with either a fixed string or a regular expression, enter a replacement, and interactively toggle which instances you want to replace. You can also specify a regex pattern for the file paths you want to search. If the instance you're attempting to replace has changed since the search was performed, e.g. if you've switched branches and that line no longer exists, that particular replacement won't occur: you'll see all such cases at the end.

TAWS is a terminal-based user interface (TUI) tool designed to help developers view and manage Amazon Web Services (AWS) resources directly from the command line in a curses-style, interactive environment. It provides a unified interface where users can explore their AWS resources such as EC2 instances, S3 buckets, IAM users, and more, all without switching to a web console, which can speed up workflows for frequent cloud administrators and developers alike. Because it runs in a terminal and is written with performance in mind, taws offers rapid navigation, filtering, and inspection of cloud services while maintaining keyboard-driven efficiency, similar to how tools like k9s help interact with Kubernetes clusters. The TUI layout allows users to traverse hierarchical AWS structures, inspect details, and often take action from within the same environment, making cloud management more fluid and less context-switching.

An idiomatic, lean, fast & safe pure Rust implementation of Git. gix is a command-line interface (CLI) to access git repositories. It's written to optimize the user experience and perform as well or better than the canonical implementation. Furthermore, it provides an easy and safe to use API in the form of various small crates for implementing your own tools in a breeze. Please see 'Development Status' for a listing of all crates and their capabilities. Please note that all functionality comes from the gitoxide-core library, which mirrors these capabilities and itself relies on all git-* crates. Limit the number of threads used in operations that support it. Choose between 'human' and 'JSON' output formats. Display general information about the index itself, with detailed extension information by default and detailed information about the TREE extension. Follow the linked crate name for detailed status.

hexyl is a simple hex viewer for the terminal. It uses a colored output to distinguish different categories of bytes (NULL bytes, printable ASCII characters, ASCII whitespace characters, other ASCII characters and non-ASCII). If you run Ubuntu 19.10 (Eoan Ermine) or newer, you can install the officially maintained package. If you run Debian Buster or newer, you can also install the officially maintained Debian package. Check out the release page for binary builds. Alternatively, install from source via cargo (see below). Make sure that you use a terminal that supports ANSI escape sequences (like ConHost v2 since Windows 10 1703 or Windows Terminal since Windows 10 1903).

sshx is a secure, collaborative terminal environment that runs in the browser and enables real-time shared access to a terminal session over the web. It’s designed for use cases like pair programming, remote debugging, teaching, or any scenario where multiple people need to see and interact with the same terminal at the same time. Users can start a session with a simple command and invite others via link, with end-to-end encryption ensuring that the session remains confidential. The interface supports an infinite canvas for arranging multiple terminal panes, real-time remote cursors, automatic reconnection, and predictive local echo to make typing feel fluid even with network latency. SSHX’s mesh networking architecture connects participants to the nearest server, facilitating fast interactions globally. Because it’s open source and cross-platform, it can be used on Linux, macOS, and Windows systems, and it integrates with CI/CD workflows to make collaborative debugging easier.

tui-rs is a Rust library to build rich terminal user interfaces and dashboards. It is heavily inspired by the Javascript library blessed-contrib and the Go library termui. The library is based on the principle of immediate rendering with intermediate buffers. This means that at each new frame you should build all widgets that are supposed to be part of the UI. While providing a great flexibility for rich and interactive UI, this may introduce overhead for highly dynamic content. So, the implementation try to minimize the number of ansi escapes sequences generated to draw the updated UI. In practice, given the speed of Rust the overhead rather comes from the terminal emulator than the library itself.

Weathr is a Rust-based terminal weather application that combines utility with charm by turning your command-line interface into a dynamic, visually engaging weather display that uses animated ASCII art to show real-time conditions. Powered by the Open-Meteo weather API, it fetches up-to-date forecasts and then renders them directly in your terminal, complete with animated rain, snow, thunderstorms, flying airplanes, and day/night cycles that change with the actual weather and time of day. The app includes auto-location detection so it can determine where you are via IP or let you specify coordinates manually for precise updates anywhere in the world. It also supports a range of simulated weather scenarios that you can trigger for testing or entertainment, like simulating snow at night or falling leaves in autumn, making it both useful and delightful to run.
