wlctl

TUI for managing wifi/ethernet/vpn on Linux with Network Manager

★ 189GPL-3.0v0.1.10RustNetworking

INSTALLATION

$ cargo install wlctl
wlctl demo

DESCRIPTION

impala is a great wifi TUI but it talks to iwd. If your distro already runs NetworkManager (most do — GNOME, KDE, Ubuntu, Fedora, Pop, …), you can't drop impala in without ripping the stack out. wlctl keeps the impala UX and points it at NetworkManager, so it just works alongside what your DE is already doing.
