Redditor

A command-line tool built in Rust that fetches and displays posts from any subreddit in real-time

Live updates straight from Reddit — filtered by subreddit, sorting method, and interval

Through this project, I demonstrated my ability to build reliable, real-time systems using Rust and public APIs. It showcases my attention to detail, strong error handling, and a clear understanding of Rust’s ecosystem — from data handling to API integration and CLI design.

Features

• Fetches Reddit posts via public API (JSON format)
• Periodically checks for new posts
• Supports sorting by: hot, new, top, rising, controversial
• Customizable update interval (default: 60 seconds)
• Shows local creation date of each post
• Handles invalid subreddit or malformed JSON gracefully
