- Linux-only app

- "Target audience: Advanced users"

- GUI only, no CLI

something does not add up there

Plenty of GUI apps target advanced users.

I use CLI tools when CLI tools make sense, GUI tools when GUI tools make sense.

(This has a graph, so a GUI doesn’t seem unreasonable)

I’d like to have a console version of FSM in the future, but I simply don’t have the time - including the time to work on it. As for the GUI, I want to develop FSM as a program for monitoring PC status, including graphs for sensors (temperature, RPM, frequency, etc.), the battery, network, and other metrics, and creating graphs in the console version isn’t very practical.

Most software for advanced users are GUI based.

And it's built in Rust so it's AI generated

And how are Rust and AI connected?
