My first project in Go is a terminal dashboard (what a programming language)

8•vinserello•5mo ago
Just wrapped up my first Go project and wow, what a language. I'm a WebDev but I studied both C and C++: Go feels like the smart, minimalist cousin that cuts the fluff but keeps the power.

- Compilation is instant - Syntax is clean and predictable - The tooling is chef's kiss (go run for example)

To test the waters, I built something fun:

Datacmd that is a CLI tool that turns CSV/JSON/API data into beautiful terminal dashboards with a single command.

No GUI. Just pure terminal magic:

datacmd --generate --source=data.csv Supports pie charts, gauges, tables, live system metrics, and it's built on top of termdash.

I see termdash was missing pie charts, tables and radar chart, so I tried implementing myself.

GitHub: github.com/VincenzoManto/datacmd Feedback and PRs welcome (probably there a lot of bugs), I’d love to grow this into a go-to tool for devs who live in the terminal.

You were there too early. It works on my machine!

P.S. The "correctly-capitalized" version is https://github.com/VincenzoManto/Datacmd (it doesn't matter for GitHub, though).

vinserello•5mo ago
Ops, I missed it
cptekwani•5mo ago
Wow, that’s a really interesting project— Keep Going!
butterlettuce•5mo ago
Haha “Going”. I get it
haute_cuisine•5mo ago
The whole project is implemented in a single git commit. AI detector says README.md has 95% chance of being AI generated. The code has way to many comments.

I don't want to disqualify you or anything for using AI, but how much effort was spent on this?

runjake•5mo ago
Not the OP, but I tend to always wipe my previous git history before a public release, and start fresh. Too many embarrassing or stupid mistakes (I'm usually learning some new environment as I go).

Your point stands, though, and I agree, looks largely AI.

moomoo11•5mo ago
The post itself reads like AI especially the line about how it is magic.

I’m personally fine with AI gen code for fast MVP and subsequent iterations.

The comments in the code are helpful for AI. When human coding I was never for having comments in the code (code should follow standards we had set).

Anyway the point about single commit is valid. But maybe the OP is newish and maybe ESL.

vinserello•5mo ago
wasn't gonna push this publicly, just slapped git at the end. Straight up copy-pasted from termdash for tables, pies, so I copied also their comments structures. AI's cool, I use it all the time for copywriting, but this code is 100% mine, bugs included :D
hiAndrewQuinn•5mo ago
Go is really, really good for TUIs in particular. I've stuck with it for the first release of https://taskusanakirja.com/ , despite it making Finnish language learners feel like they're in the movie Hackers, just because it lets me move the UI layer out of the way enough to focus on the really interesting things.
owebmaster•5mo ago
What a nice language for what, vibecoding?
vinserello•5mo ago
coming from C, Go was extremely faster and easier to approach. my personal idea
abyesilyurt•5mo ago
your post reads like ai slop
vinserello•5mo ago
It is. I'm a software engineer, not a copywriter. As long as the message lands, I'm good.
