    fake keyboard/mouse input, window management, and more

  • Right now, I'm focusing (switching) X11 windows with a shell command (xdotool) from inside my Rust program:

  • x11rb

    X11 bindings for the rust programming language, similar to xcb being the X11 C bindings

  • I also checked x11rb, but I think it's too low level (and too complicated).

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
