I have an idea for a feature-rich shell tailored for women’s health and productivity. The core idea is a menstrual cycle calendar integrated into the shell with these features: • Cycle tracking: Track period start/end, ovulation, and fertile days. • Notifications: Send email reminders when the period is expected to start. • Server-friendly: Run in the background on a server, integrating with cron or systemd. • Privacy-first: All data stored locally with optional encrypted backups. • CLI-friendly interface: Commands like cycle status, cycle next, cycle log.
It would be a complex, useful, and empowering tool for anyone who wants to combine shell productivity with personal health. I’d love to explore implementing this in Rust.
This is a very unique and thoughtful feature request! I love the idea of making the shell more personal and empowering by integrating health tracking with terminal productivity.
From a technical standpoint, implementing this in Rust would be great because of the strong focus on privacy and memory safety. The 'privacy-first' and 'local storage' aspects you mentioned align perfectly with the philosophy of GRSH.
While my current roadmap is focused on core shell stability and the FreeBSD port, GRSH is designed to be extensible. This could be a fantastic candidate for a built-in module or a dedicated plugin.
If you're interested in exploring how to implement this in Rust for GRSH, please feel free to open a discussion on the GitHub repo. I’d love to see how we can make the terminal a more inclusive and useful space for everyone
