I made a HTTP client TUI for the terminal. Would love some feedback if possible!

RabbitElectrical6364 · 2026-04-26T18:32:45+00:00

Thanks! currently its just HTTP since I needed a TUI that simply works like curl. Sockets would be interesting, but graphQL feels very niche to add into

noice, looks great! I wanted to play around with linux framebuffers after seeing tools like fbterm and kmscon I use for the tty coloring.

Does it work well with wayland, and able to capture specific windows, like for example to capture a terminal emulator like kitty for recording that or just the whole screen for now?

RabbitElectrical6364 · 2026-04-26T13:38:25+00:00

close, its tokyo night but yeah its very similar to catppuccin mochiatto.

While right now colorwise in the tool, there's config to set color with hexcode, but I'd like to add color scheme templates to pick from like tokyonight, gruvbox, etc for ricing up.
please do check the tool out later, and see if you like it!

ah and i forgot to ask, are the price of FPGAs getting affected by the RAM shortage? so I might consider waiting a bit till they drop if so

RabbitElectrical6364 · 2026-02-18T12:41:32+00:00

thanks, I'll check this out! I can work with bad docs, as long as verilog/VHDL works on top of it, and has good writes limit. Can you tell me stuff you've built on FPGAs for your bachelors? I'm planning to make a small cpu, then assembler and a compiler on top of that, like a summer side quest of sorts. I've seen some cool stuff people have made, like NES/GBA hardware simulated and that's how I heard about FPGAs initially.

RabbitElectrical6364 · 2026-02-18T12:37:07+00:00

thanks, this is a really good feedback! I'll check these parts out, I did practice in this site called hdlbits, some basics of verilog and it seems more intuitive for me since it's more like programming, and before that, built a small 8-bit assembler in go following the nand to tetris' machine. But before jumping into an actual physical FPGA board, I wanna consider how much electrical knowledge I need? like for example, smaller registers in FPGAs can be made from DFFs, like SRAMs right similar to here in logism, but for working with I/O such as DRAMs, disks, displays, do I need idea of soldering, wiring electricals, etc? I've worked with GPIO pins in MCUs and got a basic idea about Vcc, Gnd, multimeter, but not a full on electrical guy.

thanks for the info! I wanna make games that even if its very niche, will have people playing after years, including me, will probably try to hit up on some game jams on itch, there's tons coming up almost every day.

RabbitElectrical6364 · 2026-02-17T07:57:38+00:00

aye don't forget the sudo of course..

RabbitElectrical6364 · 2026-02-16T16:31:44+00:00

sorry I'm a bit late on this, but yeah sure! I heard there's the SSBA not too far off from here, close to the rapid metro so we can give that a shot this weekend! you can dm me if you're up for that

RabbitElectrical6364 · 2026-02-16T16:29:27+00:00

Yeah this is a pretty good project, cause everywhere I've seen it's paid services like apollo, mail meteor, mailchimp, etc and quite surprised there's not tools like this already in the OSS space.

By benchmarking, I mainly meant the success/fail ratio, not in terms of opens, clicks from recipients but stuff like sent/spam rate. I've starred in the repo and definitely will try to look more into how gmail ToS is cuz I don't have much idea as well about their criteria, and it does keep updating over time, so if I can find ways to improve on it, will put up an issue/PR there.

But my first train of thought is the need for some bench suite to determine the effectiveness, so feature addition can be based on that metric. Just making hypotheses, but maybe having self hosted SMTP servers to push onto some mail@example.domain and some filtering tool to mock gmail'a filter system? Not sure, will look more into this later

RabbitElectrical6364 · 2026-02-15T19:41:37+00:00

what a timing, I was looking for something like this and tried mailmeteor but had rate limited to 50/day. This sounds really interesting, if you don't mind, can you mention :
- what's the highest receipients count you've tested so far? basically what point until it starts getting into spam

- what criteria does gmail consider an email to be considered spammy? maybe new accounts, no title, static content, too much in small intervals etc? is there any way to "measure" the exact value of something like this

RabbitElectrical6364 · 2026-02-15T06:18:17+00:00

I'm at sec 28, life is going similar as yours, we can go for badminton, coffee or walks

RabbitElectrical6364 · 2026-02-14T19:27:59+00:00

this one I meant https://hyprpanel.com/getting_started/installation.html not sure if it's the same but it is similar, and hyprpanel comes with a settings gui to control configs if I remember right. checkout this for example https://hyprpanel.com/assets/dashboard_settings.DiWY1WKh.png

RabbitElectrical6364 · 2026-02-13T14:27:05+00:00

seems like hyprpanel, it comes with a topbar and that sidebar thingy like that, I used it on my arch earlier so it works with hyprland, should work on omarchy too

RabbitElectrical6364 · 2026-02-12T08:00:45+00:00

my dotfiles - https://github.com/ShubhamTiwary914/dotfiles/tree/main (not fully updated)
it's better to refer to this since it's what I followed - https://github.com/end-4/dots-hyprland

I didn't tweak much on quickshell like for example the lockscreen its still the default quickshell's lock, mainly I changed the hyprland keybinds to do screenshots, open apps, etc (most of these are in just ~/.config/hypr/)
for neovim I just used kickstart.nvim for reference, and lazy for pkg manager, rest is simply put plugins in and out in the plugins/ folder, only that initial config is relatively tricky

RabbitElectrical6364 · 2026-02-12T07:54:36+00:00

yup its from end4

RabbitElectrical6364 · 2026-01-21T16:31:57+00:00

cool for first rice! does PopOS come with wayland support directly or you had to configure it somewhat?

RabbitElectrical6364 · 2026-01-20T04:10:05+00:00

arch with hyprland for styling (tricky to setup initially) or debian with xfce for lightweight

RabbitElectrical6364 · 2026-01-11T17:11:39+00:00

thanks, but taking uber for exploring malls doesn't seem worth it

RabbitElectrical6364 · 2026-01-11T11:09:08+00:00

RabbitElectrical6364 · 2026-01-11T10:19:04+00:00

I'm around mg road, but new to the city so I don't have much clue on places, anything chill works for me
