A Reddit TUI built with Ratatui in Rust (I use Rust btw). You can optionally specify a subbreddit with: redditui [subreddit]. It displays the title, subreddit, content, and upvotes. Navigate with j/k and quit with q.
Used Claude for a little bit of help with rust cos i am new to rust :) (not a lot - just like 2-3 questions about syntax etc.)
I built Redditui, a TUI for browsing subreddits! I learned how to use Ratatui and learned more rust for this! I was unable to get comments but everything else went well! I am very happy that I get to say “I use Rust btw” now :D
Uploaded to crates.io, fixed some spacing, shows the subreddit now as well as upvotes. I couldn’t see a way to grab the comments so didn’t do that :/ Ready to ship now!

Added scrolling through the subreddit with j/k and moved the title of the post to a different box. Will show comments soon if possible. Also, I used clap to take an optional arg of the subreddit to browse (default for no value is, of course, r/rust)

I set up the basic loop of the program with ratatui (this is my first time using it) and it now reads input and:
Next I’m going to figure out how to ask the user what subreddit to view.
