What is this?tickrs shows realtime stock ticker data in your terminal, built in Rust, with quotes sourced from Yahoo! Finance.
Is this a website or desktop app, or does it run in my terminal?It runs entirely in the terminal as a TUI (text user interface) app, built on the tui-rs library for Rust.
Do I need an account or API key to get the stock data?No extra setup: quotes come straight from Yahoo! Finance, and the README mentions no account, API key, or other prerequisites.
Does it run the same on Windows?Yes, but launch it from Windows Terminal — that is what the README recommends for the app to display properly.
What inspired tickrs?The author credits ytop, a terminal system monitor by cjbassi, as the inspiration for the project.
Can I pass options on the command line?Yes — tickrs has CLI usage, so you can launch it with command-line options in addition to its config file.
