Nocturne Optimizer

Windows-first optimizer built with Tauri 2, Rust, React and TypeScript.

01. Live Optimization / Selected Profile

This is the main workflow.

• Selected Profile is now the primary control surface.
• Processes are grouped into real app families instead of raw flat process spam.
• One rule can cover the full family:
  • Discord + updater + helper chain
  • Chrome + Google Update + renderer helpers
  • Edge + WebView / updater helpers
• HUD toggle is handled by Rust, so it still reacts when the frontend is under load.

Notes

• Project is Windows-first.
• Some actions require Administrator privileges.
• Guard overlay does not replace Windows logon or Secure Desktop.
• Network rules are stored as process-oriented profiles. Full driver-level bandwidth enforcement would require deeper WFP integration.
