I made a really useful program called LogReview, but it is painfully slow when processing large files. I believe porting it to Rust would make it faster, but I do not know how to program in Rust.
So many beginner projects just have one commit with their finished project without showing how they got there and they tend to move on to the next project. I always hate seeing that. I also hate showing my uncompleted work, but I am trying to lead by example:

A common thing that often happens is that a project will get almost done and then something else will come up. Publish incomplete projects! Maybe it will help someone else who is looking to not start with a blank text page. I am trying to eat my own dog food here. I wrote this python script last week, but I got side-tracked and did not finish. It mostly works, but needs a bit more polish and testing before I would feel comfortable removing the WIP phrase. https://github.com/TechnologyClassroom/WebServerWatcher

@thomzane@daedal.io I would add a log file in the repository, both to serve as exemple and to add unit tests.
