Sadly no I’m not, but I was very inspired by him when I was in that scene! PSP hacking was my first experience with customizing any kind of device beyond what average users can do and it’s what made me fall in love with computers as a kid. I don’t think I’d be the software engineer I am today or even in this field if it wasn’t for him. My name is Alex so I thought I could pay homage to him by choosing a similar username, since he had such a massive impact on my life ☺️

To answer your question, I built it for a few reasons:

• I wanted to learn Rust, so I used this project to do that
• I really love TUI’s and I pretty much live in my command line at work, and since I already automate everything I can to make my work life easier, I wanted to be able to do the same with my homelab
• I think it looks cool
• For fun. If no one else ever gets use out of it, that’s okay! I just really enjoyed building it and I’m excited to build out more of it.

But also: Why not? ☺️

So really, you would only use this if you like TUIs or want a command line tool for interacting with your Servarrs. If you have no use for it, that’s totally fine too!

The one actual use I’ve found people say they use it for is people who don’t want to expose the web interface to interact with their Servarrs and only interact via SSH. Then they like to use this instead.

… Well that’s… Concerning…😅

What browser are you using? I want to try to recreate it!
