It seems like the FOSS community is continuing to grow, and FOSS apps keep getting better (Immich reallh blew my mind recently), which is a big win 😎 but there are still many apps I use that I would kill for an open source alternative. I am curious what you guys think? Are there any apps you’d love alternatives for?

I’m sure I’m missing something, but can’t nmap do all of this?

I usually have some specific goals I’d like to add, which is why this would be the barebones scaffolding.

That aside, I don’t like the output from nmap 😜

I’m actually looking at doing a wrapper around NMap. Personally I’m fine with “Just use NMap” as a solution, but I need something that’s usable by people who know only a little about Linux and aren’t super comfortable in the command line. So I want to do stuff like enumerating the interfaces and just letting them pick one to scan instead of having to specify a network. I’ll probably work in a really basic UI using Dialog or something as well.
