Hi Linux Lemmites. Recently finished up school and started working full time and kind of miss working on personal projects. I’m looking to try to make something in rust and try out gpui if I can figure it out or maybe egui. I also want to make something maybe even a handful of people would actually use as I find that motivating, so I ask what would actually be useful to you?
Edit: thank you all very much for the input, I think that maybe doing something akin to a “settings+” would be a fair target for me for a n initial project. If I make anything interesting I’ll make another post in this sub.
SSH connection/session manager for people who need to keep lots of open connections to different remote devices, like Xshell for Windows. There are options for Linux that come close in functionality but most seem to miss one desired feature like vertical tabs, grouping connections with a one-shot open of all in a group, saving/restoring sessions which keeps all tabs in the same order, sending keystrokes to all tabs in a window, or split panes.
Tabby is the closest I’ve found so far and is pretty nice overall, but it’s missing some functionality and isn’t the snappiest being an Electron app.
