klask VS camply

There are also similar applications for usage with clap-rs.[1][2]

This is what https://github.com/MichalGniadek/klask was made for.

Klask is another GUI generator for clap that uses egui, but claui and klask work in different ways. Klask runs your code by running itself as a child with an environment variable to ignore its GUI, then capturing the child stdout. Claui only runs one process; it spawns your code in another thread and then reroutes all of your stdout into a buffer on each frame through shh.

If you want a simple GUI over command line tools, things like klask make that really easy.

Adding Textual support to camply [1] was apparently very easy. I didn't to the implementation; I just contribute to the project sometimes: https://juftin.com/camply/command_line_usage/#tui

I've got an open-source project called camply. Here's the spiel:

I've built a free command line tool that helps with this - it's called camply: https://juftin.com/camply.

Here's a personal page built with Jekyll: https://juftin.com. And here's a Sphinx Page: https://juftin.com/camply. Both are actually hosted on GitHub pages for free.

I used this one once, but it only does campsite availability.

I came across a reddit post about a really neat tool somebody created to find openings at campgrounds on the recreation.gov website (after cancellations) and get notified immediately. This does not secure you the reservation, but instead uses the website's (public) API to link you to the booking page, from which you then select those dates that somebody else cancelled. It looks like this.

If you have a working understanding of how to run the below command and then your command line proficiency is likely enough to work with camply and you can feel free to start a discussion on GitHub to ask questions: https://github.com/juftin/camply/discussions
