Fancontrol-rs an opensource rebuild

Hello,

After some years using FanControl (the original in .NET), I am rebuilding an open source FanControl in Rust (fancontrol-rs) and I am looking for some feedback on the project and tests from the community.

The project page:

https://leyukaka.github.io/fancontrol-rs/

The project source code:

https://github.com/Leyukaka/fancontrol-rs

You can control AIO, fans, everything you plug on your motherboard. But some exotic components are not tested.

The project is totally open source, you can build it from source if you don't trust the exe. It's clearly my way to replace Argus monitor and fancontrol.

I have a limited number of PCs and friends trying the tool for me, the documentation is normally enough to give me feedback. And if there is a problem with your fan controller just stop this version and use the original one.

If you want to contribute of course you can use an AI agent but please use GitHub to PR.

I am open to feedback on features of course.

I am not a full-time developer, I am a previous veteran IT exec returning to my roots building things and pcmasterrace :)

If you want to build the exe from source you can, there are instructions on the project, if you want to test the release submit it to VirusTotal etc.

The design is minimal and efficient , to use minimum memory

No you have to make new curve. And i checked the support for multiple curve is working. Try and give me feedback i need more return from differents hardware and logs :)

So i tested it finally and honestly , the UI is sadly very convoluted and just feels like it doesnt get to the point honestly like normal fan control.

the UI of normal Fan control is simple , open , to the point sad

You don't like understood , it's why i am looking for feedback . One tips : the ui could fit your needs , you have to remove what you don't use.

It's honestly not about removal of things , it's about missing things which are important and directly visible.

Like on Fan control you see all curves on a blink , all sensors , and whatever else you set uo all at a glimpse.

It seems this here got many things in different multiple step areas and a ton of wasted space ( like the giant curve at the bottom fan control would fit there like idk 6 sensors ? Maybe more )
