Description

Vayu is a command-line interface like taskwarrior meant for task management. The end goal for the tool is to have a multipurpose study tool with task and note storage, task management, and pomodoro study timers/music. As a computer engineering student at UIUC, having an organized task management system is critical. I hope to bring that to others with vayu.

Installation

The best way to install vayu is via cargo which comes with an installation of rust. For installation of rust navigate to https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install.

Then in Windows PowerShell or the approriate Terminal for your OS type in: cargo install vayu

To check if vayu has been installed properly open a new terminal window and type: vayu

If there is an empty list then congratulations the installation was successful! If not ensure rust is included in your path variable as explained on the rust installation page.
