🛰️ Yoinky :: System Monitor

A lightweight and efficient terminal-based system monitor for Linux, built with Rust 🦀. Yoinky provides a real-time, at-a-glance view of your system's key metrics in a clean and boxy terminal user interface.

✨ Features

• 💻 CPU Monitoring: Tracks core count, temperature, and overall usage percentage.
• 🧠 RAM Monitoring: Displays current memory usage with a progress gauge.
• 🎮 GPU Monitoring: Detects GPU type (Nvidia/AMD) and shows its temperature.
• 💾 Disk Monitoring: Shows total disk usage for your root partition.
• 🎨 Modern TUI: A clean, segmented interface built with ratatui.
• 🚀 Lightweight: Written in Rust for performance and low resource consumption.

🛠️ Technology Stack

• Rust: The core programming language, chosen for its safety and performance.
• ratatui: A TUI (Terminal User Interface) library for creating rich, interactive terminal applications.
• crossterm: A terminal manipulation library used as a backend for ratatui.
• procfs: A library to access system and process information from the /proc filesystem on Linux.

🚀 Getting Started

✅ Prerequisites

• Rust (and Cargo) installed on your system.
• On NVIDIA systems: nvidia-smi command-line tool must be installed and in your PATH.
• On AMD systems: rocm-smi may be required for temperature readings on newer cards.
