uutils procps is a work-in-progress Rust reimplementation of procps, the package that provides utilities for monitoring and interacting with processes.
This project aims to provide memory-safe replacements for tools such as `ps`, `top`, `kill`, `free`, `vmstat`, `uptime`, and others found in procps.
> **Note:** This project is still in early development. Many features are not yet implemented and behavior may differ from the original procps tools.
# Goals
Implement a cross-platform, memory-safe set of process monitoring utilities compatible with the procps command-line interfaces.
