    Terminal chat through the LAN with video streaming and file transfer.

  • Already opened another one about streaming, you can both crash and hang a client. https://github.com/lemunozm/termchat/issues/33

  • rust-sloth

    A 3D software rasterizer... for the terminal!

  • Probably I have not been fair with the `ASCII` meaning in the webcam context. At this moment (as you can see in the readme image of the repo) it transform the webcam color pixels to xterm colors to draw in the character background cell. But the idea is that I could make something like https://github.com/mazy1998/asciiVideo or https://github.com/ecumene/rust-sloth

  • 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.

  • message-io

    Fast and easy-to-use event-driven network library.

  • The initial purpose was to show the capabilities of https://github.com/lemunozm/message-io Nevertheless, Termchat is growing and needs to polish some of its features. At this point it is not for real-world use but I hope to reach this target.
