asic-rs brings the same miner abstraction and control that PyASIC offers to the Rust ecosystem—simple MinerFactory discovery (by IP, subnet, octets, or range), data gathering via GetMinerData, and control via HasMinerControl. It is published on crates.io and documented on docs.rs, making it easy to add to any Rust project. We're shifting focus to asic-rs for new tooling due to its robustness and automation advantages.

asic-rs was created to provide a robust, type-safe way to manage ASIC miners from Rust-based tooling and services, complementing our Python-based PyASIC. The library supports miner discovery, data collection, and control operations so developers can build automation, monitoring, or integration layers in Rust.

asic-rs is for Rust developers who need to discover, monitor, or control ASIC miners—whether building CLI tools, services, or integrations. If you prefer Rust for performance or ecosystem reasons and work with ASIC miners, asic-rs is designed for you.

PyASIC currently has support for more miners than any other open source system of its kind, and is one of the only open source solutions for handling multiple types of miners (btctoolslib comes to mind, but that is a GUI program, not a library for writing your own). With the number of supported miners (https://docs.pyasic.org/en/latest/miners/supported_types) PyASIC is extremely simple to get set up with, and is already in use by a few other cool open and closed source projects. We are planning to replace PyASIC with asic-rs for new development—asic-rs is more robust and more automated.

PyASIC started as an automation system for our own mining loadcenters, back in the early days. It used to be extremely tedious to monitor operations, with manual note taking about what was wrong with systems, and having to compare long term data manually. Over the course of a few years, PyASIC was slowly developed to ease the development of tools for this.

PyASIC is designed for developers and people with a small amount of literacy in python who want to do small automation tasks, handle miner control remotely, or even build their own monitoring system. If you have ASIC miners, and you know some code, PyASIC is designed for you!

gooseBit was originally designed as an alternative to the only other notable option at the time, hawkBit(TM), which is written in Java, making it slow to compile and setup, as well as very resource intensive to run. Additionally, as of the creation of gooseBit, the user interface for hawkBit(TM) was deprecated, meaning it could only be controlled via the API.

gooseBit started as our own custom internal server for remote updates, designed for LoadSync(TM). The goal was to be able to remotely push updates to devices without the need for manual intervention. Not long after that, we started considering open sourcing it, considering the struggles we had faced with other solutions. SA post was made to the SWUpdate(TM) (the embedded update handler gooseBit works with) mailing list, and there was some interest, so our update server was open sourced under the name "gooseBit".

gooseBit is designed for developers with embedded or IoT devices which use SWUpdate(TM) for software updates. gooseBit provides a feature-rich system for developers and companies in this situation, and has a permissive license allowing for commercial use.
