isd: interactive systemd (asg2025)

Chaos Computer Club - recent events feed (low quality)

Simplify systemd management with `isd`! `isd` is a TUI offering fuzzy search for units, auto-refreshing previews, smart sudo handling, and a fully customizable interface for power-users and newcomers alike. If you ever became frustrated while typing: - `systemctl start --user unit-A.service` (manually starting a unit) - `systemctl status --user unit-A.service` (seeing that it failed) - `journalctl -xe --user -u unit-A.service` (checking the logs) - `systemctl edit --user unit-A.service` (updating the unit) - (repeat until problem is solved) `isd` could help. In this presentation, we will discuss the features that `isd` currently supports, the features that are planned for the future, and the experience of developing a TUI for `systemd` commands. I hope attendees will find the content engaging and practical. Audience participation is highly encouraged. I am especially eager to hear your thoughts, ideas, and feature requests. If you think a tool like `isd` might be unnecessary or redundant, I'd love to hear your perspective, too!
