🔮 write to your future self! <3

cornelli is your small terminal app for the times when you really desire to give your future self pats for the work you do; or for expressing any thoughts to them.

$ cargo install nelli

Or, get the goodie from GitHub Releases.

🪄 Usage

Get started by setting a password. You can temporarily set this:

# on unix
export CORNELLI_PASS="whateveryouwant"

# on windows
set CORNELLI_PASS=1234

Then, by putting your thoughts away for a certain duration, you encrypt your letter away.:

# unlocks after 20 days, 1 hour, 2 minutes and 1 second
nelli keep "Miss the board games with friends?" -d 20d1h2m1s

As time goes, let this command surprise you once in a while if you feel like it:

nelli mailbox

Hopefully you'll enjoy what comes next! :3

[!NOTE] On a special note - if you use different passes for different capsules, you can get a plethora of capsules which all unlock when different ones of these passwords are provided, not revealing them in an instant, at all.

☘️ Compiling

cargo build --release --locked

🪄 Why

This is a Christmas project - a friend and I decided to spin up a friendly hackathon for building a time capsule of memories. And besides, what better way to set the mood for this day than creating something fun with the tools you have?
