README
Killport-tui 🦀
A lightweight, terminal-based UI tool to view open ports and kill the processes occupying them. Built with Rust and Ratatui.
Overview
killport-tui provides a visual interface for managing system processes that are listening on network ports. Instead of chaining lsof, grep, and kill commands manually, you can browse, filter, and terminate processes directly from a clean TUI.
Features
- Visual Dashboard: View Port, PID, Process Name, and Command details in a table.
- Search & Filter: Press
/to filter processes by name, PID, or port number. - Safety First: "Confirm to Kill" modal prevents accidental shutdowns.
- Cross-Platform: Works on Linux, macOS, and Windows.
- Lightweight: Built with Rust for high performance and low resource usage.
