v1.0.0
Sniffnet - Graphical User Interface (GUI)
The application is no longer just a command line interface: Sniffnet has now a whole graphical user interface!
- Charts and traffic statistics are now constantly updated and shown interactively in the GUI
- Users don't have to worry about command line options anymore: it is now possible to comfortably specify adapters and filters through the GUI
- Sniffnet is now more accessible, available in real-time, easy to use and aesthetically pleasing thanks to its new interface
In order to reach out as many people as possible, I created installers (see below) for Windows, macOS and Linux, to make it easier to install Sniffnet for those that still doesn't have Rust on their machines.
The installers are generated from pre-built binaries for Windows 10, MacOS x64 and Debian-based Linux distributions (including Debian, Ubuntu, Mint, Kali and other popular linux ditributions).
If you are running on Windows or Linux, don't forget to install the required dependencies (you can find them here).
Open an issue if you are not able to make them work on your machine.
