A lean viewer for [Phoebus Display Builder](https://control-system-studio.readthedocs.io/en/latest/app/display/editor/doc/index.html)
`.bob` screens (and CS-Studio BOY `.opi` screens), written in Rust with
[egui](https://github.com/emilk/egui). It shows live EPICS Channel Access and
PV Access values, including areaDetector images, and is small enough to run
on a phone. The same app runs in a browser, served by `bobview-server`.
