nordvpn-tui

nordvpn-tui is a terminal-based user interface (TUI) tool built in Rust that provides a simple and interactive way to manage NordVPN connections. The tool allows users to browse, search, and select countries and cities for VPN connection directly from the terminal using keyboard navigation.

Features
