Hey HN, I'm Fabio

I built this tool to eliminate the annoying typing lag that exists when interacting with a remote server through the terminal. It was originally meant to be a PR to Herdr better, but it got ignored as they don't accept external collaborators anymore.

Foretype displays characters optimistically on your terminal, even before the server echoes it back. So you got that nice zero latency local feel even when coding remotely though a VPS. Open source and entirely built with Rust.
