PiTop - Rust Client-Server App for System Utilization Monitoring

PiTop is a 100% rust client-server TUI application designed to monitor Windows system utilization on a Raspberry Pi server (I display the data on the 7" raspberry pi display). The app uses various rust libraries, such as tui, sysinfo, clap; the backend is built on TCP with MPSC processing.

Features

• Gather system utilization data on a Windows client (Supports NVIDIA systems)
• Send the collected data to the Raspberry Pi server.
• Display real-time system utilization information on the Raspberry Pi using a terminal-based user interface (tui).

Requirements

• Rust programming language (installation guide: Rust Lang)
• Cargo
• Windows Client
• Server (Windows and Linux supported)

Installation

Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/your-username/PiTop.git

Usage

1. Run the Windows client:

cargo run --bin win_client

2. Run the Raspberry Pi server:

cargo run --bin pi_server

command line arguments are supported: cargo run --bin win_client -- --help for more info
