For me it’s: Testdisk (and Photorec) Caddy Netstat Dig Aria2

    A single, decent, maintained one for LVM.

    Redhat had a couple of goes at this and they suck ass big time and rely on KDE (so no good for any other DE / WM). I’m not sure anything really works, so I’ll say: none exist.

    w3m, as weird as that sounds, for image drawing. links graphical mode is nice, but I’m not a fan of its keybindings, and w3mimagedisplay is hacky at best, to say the least.

    I’ve kinda grown towards CLI the last year or so. I used to make wrappers around CLIs for myself even haha

    I’d love to have archivemount or a similar tool integrated in a file manager

    I’d also love to have some sort of full featured gui software to install and manage custom roms in phones, allowing to do everything, from unlocking bootloaders to downloading and flashing/upgrading roms. For the tasks that require manual steps, it could offer illustrated steps, with a community driven database of phone models.

    Pandoc, for sure. I love its versatility, it’s made it super easy for me to do most of my writing in markdown — and a lot of MD editors have it built-in as an export feature.

    But I use it too rarely to know the CLI commands by heart, and sometimes it would just be super helpful to open a GUI and batch convert (and/or collate) a bunch of files to a new format.

    Tell you what, throw Imagemagick and maybe a light OCR backend into the package as a Swiss Army Knife for document management, I’d probably be happy.

    Just of the top of my head discovered today.

    Not a GUI as one exists. But a more configurable one as it is crap for visually impaired.

    Rpi-imager gui dose not take theme indications for font size etc. Worse it has no configuration to change such thing.

    Making it pretty much unsuable for anyone with poor vision.

    Also it varies for each visually impaired indevidual. But dark mode is essential for some of ua.

    So if your looking for small projects. Youd at least make me happy;)

    Anything that needs to be configured with YAML, and Kubernetes in particular.

    I mean I get the whole Infrastructure as Code hype (although I have never witnessed or heard of a situation where an entire cluster needed to be revived from scratch), but it should be very possible to make a gui that writes the YAML for you.

    I don’t want to memorize every possible setting and what it does and if someone makes a typo in the config (or in the white space, as it’s YAML) everything is borked.

    Call me old-fashioned but the graphical ui of something like octopus deploy was a thousand times more user friendly imho.

      I think infrastructure as code is best utilized when paired with software testing and rapid deployment. It allows for a kind of granularity manual configuration doesn’t give you

      I think it’s easy to make a generic YAML editor that all you need to do is to pass a “definitions” file that says all the possible options to show as a drop down or toggle etc.

      That would be useful for many projects.

      That UI is called VSCode

      At the top of your .yaml file, you can set a JSON Schema. Example:

      # yaml-language-server: $schema=https://json.schemastore.org/prometheus.json

scrape_configs:
  - job_name: caddy
    static_configs:
      - targets:
          - caddy:2019

      This way, you don’t have to memorize every possible setting and what it does and risk making a typo in the config. VSCode will just tell you.

      Hmm, I might try to make that. Any particular feature you are looking for, or is just displaying all the events in a table good 'nuff?

        I’m not them, but sorting by columns, filtering, searching with highlights would be useful. Also, specifying the columns you wish to see.

        After writing it down this sounds just plain spreadsheet operations, so the real value of such a tool would be to do all the above at the same time as watching changes.

        There’s also other things that would be useful. Like a feature to select multiple directories for watching. Live output to file in original format. Maybe also JSON for when you would use it from code, but that’s maybe not that useful because then why not just use the API directly… Perhaps some patterns for which ones to send as an audible system notification.

    I’m missing a good GUI to manage SELinux. It is probably because I don’t know how to handle it but I hate this thing with passion.

    Rclone. Not because it’s a complicated tool, but because I would like a history of my file transfers and a few graphs to show we what speeds, files sizes and whether the transfer succeeded. At the moment in order to confirm my home backups have succeeded, I have to run a separate size comparisons between my different datastores.
