A lightweight, cross-platform implementation of the classic Microsoft Office Assistant built with Rust and egui.
- Native Performance: Compiled Rust binary with minimal memory footprint.
- Cross-Platform: Native support for Linux (x86_64/ARM64), macOS (Apple Silicon), and Windows.
- No Dependencies: Single-binary execution with no external runtime requirements (except standard graphics libs on Linux).
Download the binary for your architecture from the Releases page.
