## Project history and usage

Squiid is an advanced Rust calculator with a terminal user interface and support for both algebraic infix input and reverse Polish notation.

### Project history

The official GitLab project was created in March 2023 and published its 1.0.0 release in July 2023. The application is organized as a Ratatui front end, a calculation engine that evaluates postfix notation, and a parser that converts algebraic infix expressions into postfix form.

### Adoption history

Squiid is packaged for both Homebrew and Windows Package Manager, giving the terminal calculator a straightforward installation path on macOS, Linux through Homebrew, and Windows.

### How it is used

Users run the `squiid` executable to perform advanced calculations in a terminal UI, choosing either conventional algebraic notation or an RPN workflow.

### Why package nerds care

Squiid combines a modern Rust TUI stack with a deliberately separated parser and calculation engine, while its Homebrew and WinGet entries make the same terminal-first calculator available across package ecosystems.

### Timeline

- 2023: Official GitLab project created.
- 2023: Version 1.0.0 released.
- 2025: Version 1.3.0 released.

### Related projects

- squiid-engine implements the RPN-based calculation backend.
- squiid-parser converts algebraic infix notation to postfix notation.
