My first "real" rust project --> reepicheep: a Rust program to help with the management of complex medicine (pill) management cycles.

My wife recently was diagnosed with cancer, I've been playing around with Rust here and there for a while. She needed a way to keep on top of what medications to take when, it can be quite complex taking some pills on different schedules and cycles.

This Rust program is running on a Linode instance and sends her text messages mornings and evenings telling her what to take via twilio. I love Rust, it's just running on a 1GB cloud instance for 5 bucks a month and I know it won't break and I can set it and forget it!
