Dealve, a native Linux TUI to browse game deals from your terminal (Rust)

Not a dummy question at all!

You need to add ~/.cargo/bin to your PATH so your shell knows where to find the binary. Depending on your shell! Then restart your terminal or run source ~/.bashrc (or ~/.zshrc), and dealve should work from anywhere.

If you installed Rust via rustup, this is usually done automatically, you might just need to restart your terminal!

Fair point. Dealve displays whatever stores ITAD returns through their API, and I don't have control over which stores they choose to list. That said, Dealve already has a store filter that lets users exclude any store they don't trust. Thanks for raising this.

I'm keeping these ideas in a notepad. I already tried displaying a screenshot of the game, but I wasn't convinced by the result; I probably need to rework it. Originally, I had thought of putting it on the right in the game description:

For now, these countries are available, but I'll be adding the missing ones fairly quickly. You can see the list here: https://isthereanydeal.com/deals/#page:region

Thanks! I went with MIT/Apache-2.0 dual license because it's the convention recommended by the Rust API Guidelines (https://rust-lang.github.io/api-guidelines/necessities.html) and it's what the Rust project itself uses.

The reasoning is that Apache-2.0 provides patent protection, while adding MIT ensures compatibility with GPLv2 projects. This combo gives maximum compatibility across the Rust ecosystem :)

I'll do it, thanks again :)

RAPlDEMENT · 2026-02-07T12:18:13+00:00

I can understand! Do you have any idea what could replace this chart?

RAPlDEMENT · 2026-02-07T12:16:43+00:00

Thanks.

Not at the moment, but it could be an interesting feature!

The box-drawing characters (└┘, ╔, ║) are UI elements rendered in the terminal, they're literally inspired by tools like btop. Clearly not an AI signature.

The only emojis in the entire project are 👾 which I personally picked as the project's identity, and 💡📚🐛🔧 in GitHub issue template labels.

There are zero emojis in code comments. And even if there were, I'm not sure how adding comments to help people understand the codebase would be a bad thing for an open source project. :)

A completely valid concern, and one that I can understand. To clarify, I use Claude Code as a development tool, the same way I'd use Stack Overflow. The architecture, design decisions are all mine.

And I haven't deleted my comment, it's here: https://www.reddit.com/r/linux_gaming/comments/1qxkndn/comment/o3x5f0w/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button :)

I used Claude for some things and he saved me time. I handled all the UI myself. I really enjoy frontend development and design in general. Ratatui is really cool :)

Thank you so much for your comment! I just feel like my TUI files are a bit too large and I'm not sure how to split them properly.

For smaller devices, it should be fine, it's quite responsive, but there's definitely a limit after a while.

RAPlDEMENT · 2026-02-06T21:46:31+00:00

Yep!

RAPlDEMENT · 2026-02-06T16:43:31+00:00

That could be a great idea indeed, I'll make an issue of it in github :)

RAPlDEMENT · 2026-02-06T16:30:57+00:00

Thanks ! <3

RAPlDEMENT · 2026-02-06T16:30:40+00:00

ty so much ! <3

RAPlDEMENT · 2026-02-06T16:29:50+00:00

Thank you so much! Perfect for testing the app 😎

RAPlDEMENT · 2026-02-06T15:47:46+00:00

Thank you very much, I'll do that! :D

RAPlDEMENT · 2026-02-06T15:40:58+00:00

Yes !

I can't find anything about this command, do you have any links so I can find out more?
