Worried you'll accidentally wipe your system drive?\n  \u003cbr /\u003e\n  \u003ccode\u003eetchr\u003c/code\u003e is a modern, reliable tool that makes flashing SD cards and USB drives simple and safe. It is built as a modular workspace containing a core library and a command-line front-end.\n\u003c/p\u003e\n\n---\n\nThis repository is a Cargo workspace containing the following crates:\n\n* [`etchr`](./etchr/README.md): A fast, safe, and interactive CLI for flashing disk images. This is the crate most users will interact with.\n* [`etchr-core`](./etchr-core/README.md): The core, UI-agnostic library for `etchr`. It provides the business logic for device discovery, reading, and writing, and can be used by any front-end.\n\n## 🚀 Installation \u0026 Usage\n\nFor most users, you will want to install and use the command-line application, `etchr`.\n\nPlease see the [**`etchr` README**](./etchr/README.md) for detailed installation and usage instructions.\n\nA quick-start for installation is:\n\n```bash\ncargo install etchr\n```\n\n## ✨ Project Goals\n\n* **Modularity:** The core logic is completely decoupled from the UI, allowing for different front-ends (CLI, GUI) to be built on the same foundation.\n* **Safety:** The primary goal is to prevent users from accidentally wiping the wrong disk. The interactive-only device selection is a key part of this.\n* **Performance:** Use unbuffered, direct I/O where possible to achieve the best possible speeds.\n* **Cross-Platform:** The architecture is designed to support multiple operating systems (Linux, Windows, macOS) by abstracting platform-specific code into a dedicated layer.\n\n## 🗺️ Roadmap\n\n* [x] Refactor into a `core` library and a `cli` application.\n* [ ] Add full implementation for Windows device discovery.\n* [ ] Add implementation for macOS device discovery.\n* [ ] Add a `etchr-gui` crate using a framework like [Tauri](https://tauri.app/) or [Iced](https://github.com/iced-rs/iced).\n* [ ] Smarter reading (e.g., only reading partitions, not the whole empty disk).\n* [ ] Multi-write: Flashing one image to multiple devices at once.\n\n## Contributing\n\nContributions are welcome! This project is structured as a workspace. Please make sure your changes are made in the appropriate crate.\n\n* For changes to the core logic (reading, writing, verification, platform support), please contribute to `etchr-core`.\n* For changes to the command-line interface (parsing, prompts, output), please contribute to `etchr`.\n\nFeel free to open an issue or start a discussion.\n\n## License\n\nThis project is licensed under the MIT License.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fsskartheekadivi%2Fetchr","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fsskartheekadivi%2Fetchr","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fsskartheekadivi%2Fetchr/lists"}
