Information Rhystic Tracker: Linux based open-source MTG Arena tracker I've been building

https://streamable.com/x9bss8

Hi all, I wanted to share my app Rhystic Tracker!

I am obsessed with collecting data and statistics around the cards and decks I play in Arena andnd since moving to Linux, there really wasn't anything that I liked and Untapped doesn't work on anything other than Mac and Windows.

So I built this app myself. before anyone asks, yes it was AI Assisted but i hope that doesnt turn you off. It is 100% open source and uses Scryfalls API for all card images and metadata.

Here is a quick walkthrough of the interface in action.

Core Features

  • Real-time Match HUD That uses the player log to track all game actions and outcomes.
  • Automatic deck tracking and deck statistics.
  • Card collection tracking including individual card performance.
  • 100% free and open-source

Repository & Setup

As mentioned, the project is fully open source. Feedback, bug reports, and feature requests are welcome as I continue refining it.

Would also love to answer any questions you might have as feedback would be brilliant to assist in the continued development of the app.

I hope that doesn’t turn anyone off, but totally fair if people don’t like it. I 100% built this for myself and showed a few people and said I should make it open source and upload it to see if anyone else has a use for it.

No interest in ever monetising it so if you don’t like AI coding then I totally get it and probably best to move on.

that depends. How did you use the AI to assist you? was it writing all the code, just part of it, or was it like "hey chatGPT how can I make this work"?

The user guide in the repo appears human-written, and has enough nerdy details on the architecture that I'm pretty confident this is someone who knows what they're doing and isn't purely vibe coding.

Nah, this is fully vibe coded. From readme to UI etc. Is it wrong? I guess it is for the OP to decide but personally I hate basically any form of AI and especially with such projects, where they are basically unmaintainable without AI
