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!

    It’s great to see more and more tools around restic.

    DejaDup also recently added restic support.

    It looks very nice, but I’m not familiar with wails. Is it lightweight? I currently just use a pwsh script to manage restic, but would be nice to have a gui

      Compared to electron it is lightweight. i.e. it doesn’t include full Chrome, but a webkit webview, which also has its caveats, but does the job just fine.

    Very nice looking, but judging from the screenshot, the app window seems to be massive? It doesn’t fit on my Macbook Air, and I’m sure won’t fit on my various 1366x768 Linux laptops. Or maybe the app creates scrollbars automatically? Also, does it have a light theme, or is it only dark? (I have a lot of astigmatism, so dark themes aren’t readable to my eyes). Other than that, it looks great!
