The System Wayfinder - (looking for feedback)

The System Wayfinder - (looking for feedback) - Y'[email protected]

I have quite a few self-hosted services, both on machines at home and on a VPS. And there are even more odds and ends I’ve written that do things on my home network. A one-person maintenance team runs into serious memory limitations, particularly for the services that just run fine for years at a time. After running into the frustration of forgetting how to run Nextcloud upgrades on the command line for the nth time, I realized it was time to write a tool. The system wayfinder is what came out of that frustration. It lets you leave notes and commands in place around your infrastructure. After dogfooding it a bit, I was delighted when it saved me a ton of trouble dealing with one of my docker containers. I took some time to work on it proper, wrote it up, and put it on GitHub, even though it is still a pre-release. Would you use a tool like this? What else would you want in it?

I hope we see more Notcurses apps in the future

Wouldn’t it be nice to have, say, a Mastodon TUI that could show images in-line? A lot of terminals are capable of that. Here is an interesting demo showing 3d rendering in the terminal: https://github.com/MasFlam/notcurses-rend3d [https://github.com/MasFlam/notcurses-rend3d]
