Stonks Dashboard – Real-time crypto and stock data in your terminal

Summary: Stonks Dashboard is a terminal-based tool that displays real-time market data for cryptocurrencies, stocks, and ETFs using dynamic ASCII charts. It features smart local caching to reduce API calls and supports trend lines from 1 to 90 days. Built with Node.js, it launches without configuration via npx.

What it does

It fetches data from Yahoo Finance and CoinGecko, visualizing market trends in a terminal user interface with a cyberpunk style and local caching to avoid API rate limits.

Who it's for

Developers who want to monitor market data without leaving the terminal or switching contexts.

Why it matters

It eliminates the need to switch to browsers for market updates by providing real-time data directly in the terminal.
