Resticity - a cross-platform frontend for restic

https://github.com/ad-on-is/resticity

Hey guys,

I've been building a frontend for restic the past couple of weeks, and it's at the stage where the app is finally ready and usable. So I wanted to share it with the world. Oh, and it's FOSS of course.

It's intended to be used either as a cross-platform desktop app (built using wails) or to be run in a Docker container, for homelab uses, etc.

PRs and feature requests are more than welcome :-)

Right now, I could also use some help for distributing it across the different platforms, AUR, Flatpak, etc.

I hope you guys like it. Cheers!

I was literally looking for something like this today, neat.

I've been using this UI in restic mode https://apps.gnome.org/DejaDup/

Will have to compare and see which is nicer

Are you aware of Backrest? https://github.com/garethgeorge/backrest/tree/main?tab=readme-ov-file

Didn't know if you could provide a short comparison between yours and that.

Looking forward to giving this a try since i want to provide someone with a restic setup but make it easier on them.

I haven't heard about Backrest until now... when did it come out? My initial research on restic GUIs was a few months back.

Only a month or two ago I feel. No worries- the more the better.

I'll probably give both a spin. Thanks again for the project!
