Visualize the planets of our solar system

[![GitHub release](https://img.shields.io/github/v/release/hiltontj/solars)](https://github.com/hiltontj/solars/releases)

## Overview

`solars` is a learning tool for exploring our solar system. Originally developed as a quick way to visualize planetary alignment on a given date, `solars` is also a foray into application design and the world of application development using [Tauri][tauri-app].

[tauri-app]: https://tauri.app/

## Preview

Enter a year, month, and day to see the relative alignment of the planets, or select one of the inputs and scroll up or down to fast-forward or rewind, respectively. Click **Today** to jump to today's date:



Some basic options allow you to customize the view:



## Build & Development

Clone this repository to your local machine. Since `solars` is a Tauri app, you may read the guides for [Developing Tauri apps][tauri-develop] and for [Building Tauri apps][tauri-build] on the official website.

You will need one of Tauri's CLI utilities installed, e.g., `tauri-cli`:

```
cargo install tauri-cli
```

You can then build the application bundle for your local operating system:

```
cargo tauri build
```

Or, launch the development server:

```
cargo tauri dev
```
