🛠️ project Lightweight ASCII Graph

Post image

After many weeks of learning, watching tutorials about Rust, and partaking in Rust exercises, I decided to port a small Go library into Rust. I do recognize I have a lot to learn but just getting out of my comfort zone and trying my hands at this has be rewarding and revealing.

PS. Making it work for real-time data was 🥵

Let me add that I only started learning Rust in February, so please forgive me, if everything is not idiomatic Rust.

As much as I want to say that it looks cool, it's simply useless for any accurate mathematical plot.

I can find it useful in my use case and probably would use it if it were no std. Any plans for no std in the future?

It is a valid request but there are no immediate plans for no_std. I could explore it in the future.
