PO

Poker over SSH

I've been interested in making a TUI application and learning Rust for a while now. Since some friends and family started playing poker, I found it a good opportunity to make my "learning Rust" project a poker TUI app. Inspired by https://github.com/shazow/ssh-chat, I also wanted to make something that could be connected to and played with just using SSH. For me, poker is usually with friends and family, so I focused the app's target audience to be private, small-scale games, avoiding the headaches associated with scaling to some massive web-based platform. Big thanks…

In plain words

Poker over SSH is a terminal-based poker application built in Rust that allows players to join games remotely using only SSH connections. Designed for small private games among friends and family, it provides a lightweight alternative to web-based poker platforms. Players can connect to a game server and play together without complex setup or scaling requirements.

Big thanks again to the folks that've already taught me some cool things about Rust and UI design.
