* #Rust (Actix) backend 🦀
* Diesel ORM w/ #SQLite⛽
* HTML templates with Tera 🌎
* #HTMX for interactivity ⛰️
* #Nix and #NixOS for build and deployment ❄️

If you do _anything_ with data and enjoy working in the terminal, check it out. It can
• provide a #TUI for viewing and editing data in #CSV, #Excel, #SQLite, #JSON, #YAML & #XML files and quite a few more
• sort, filter, join and edit that data, across files and across formats
• convert between the formats (interactively or not)
• record & play macros
• be scripted in #Python
