try-rs, a project and experiment manager with a TUI interface, an evolution of tobi/try.

Hello everyone and @dhh,

I’ve been working on this project for some time now, and it’s evolving well. I came across try (tobi) and really liked the idea, but for me a few things were missing. I was also planning to learn Rust, so I decided to build my own version of try.

At this point, the project has reached a level where it includes all the features I had planned and is quite stable. We already have a few contributors, and several issues have been completed.
