Looking for Rust Project Ideas for Semester Project - Any Suggestions?
Rewrite something like https://linux.die.net/man/1/iotop in Rust. Currently it is implemented in python, and running it as root does not give a warm fuzzy feeling.( I C version has also been made : https://github.com/Tomas-M/iotop but I have not reviewed that )

A little review of process (task) monitors and system info tools
Process monitoring is mandatory but CPU and I/O monitoring can be useful. It does a moveable window so I can watch it on a second monitor, along with other app windows, when the app I'm testing is running full screen so conky, although nice, is not quite what I need. In a terminal I use htop and/or iotop but I find graphical apps to be easier to read. I didn't want to have to compile anything or use Flatpak/Snap/AppImage/whatever but there's already a bunch of monitors in the repos so I checked them out and here's what I found.

BTOP++ is a power resource monitor for Linux
I recommend the C reimplementation of iotop btw, it has lots more features and is more efficient and is maintained. It is packaged as iotop-c in Debian and other distros.

Let's Destroy a Linux System
Monitor system resources usage: This can be done by using a tool top, ps, htop or bpytop. These tools let you introspect the processes running on a Linux system and the resources they're consuming.

Cleaned up the rack.. A lot used to be on top of it..
htop is powerful, but considered old-school, the cool kids use glances, netdata or bpytop now.

BPYTOP - a fun HTOP alternative :-)
Check out btop. It’s a rewrite of bpytop in C++. Both are from the same author. FYI, bpytop is also a rewrite of bashtop in python.
- TIL: You can view CPU frequency and temperature in htop
