## Motivation
I started this project a while ago after an online friend asked me how he could delete all his images hosted on Imgur. While a simple script was enough to help him I wanted to make the project as accessible as possible. So I was trying to make it an executable. I made that project with TS/Node.js and was planning to package it. I tried to use projects like [PKG](https://github.com/vercel/pkg) or even tried [NCC](https://github.com/vercel/ncc), but I had issues trying to package it. It wasn't able to package the [Open](https://www.npmjs.com/package/open) dependency.
### Why Rust?
While this project could have also been done in many other ways like:
- C#, powerful and also matching the language of the ShareX project
Recently I just wanted to try out [the most loved language](https://survey.stackoverflow.co/2022/#technology-most-loved-dreaded-and-wanted) for myself and was looking for a project to get started with. This project seemed like the perfect fit since it also allows for easy distribution with cross-platform compilation.
So I decided to try Rust, and it worked like a charm.
Yes, I know this project could have also been done in many other (easier) ways, like:
- C#, powerful and also matching the language of the ShareX project.
- Or even simpler as a Powershell or Python script probably
I just wanted to try out the most loved language for myself. It also allows for easy distribution with easy cross-platform compilation.
But this project wasn't for any business related task and I wanted to try out Rust. So I did.
It's a bit hard to get started with due to these new concepts, like ownership, borrowing, and lifetimes, but I really like it.
It's a very powerful language with great error messages and many useful crates. I'm looking forward to learn more about it.
### Code
Watching video's from [No Boilerplate](https://www.youtube.com/c/NoBoilerplate) motivated me to try out Rust. On advise about your Rust toolkit, he suggested the following Clippy lints:
