y-reader
Y Reader is a simple Hacker News client built in Rust using the egui immediate-mode GUI toolkit. It's very much a work-in-progress, but features periodic refresh, comment browsing, and excessive use of concurrency to deal with the terrible Hacker News API design :)
Usage
Clone the repo and run:
cargo run --release
I plan to package some binaries once the project is a bit more stable!
Planned Features
- Infinite scroll, don't limit to 100 items per tab
- Improved parsing of comment HTML
- Persistent custom UI settings
- Support
Ask
andJobs
- In-app views for users
- Login, voting and commenting (no auth support yet from YC)
