Show HN: SpedFind – An open-source internet speed test (React/Python and CLI)

Hi HN,

I built SpedFind because I wanted a highly accurate network diagnostic tool without the ads and clutter of mainstream options, wrapped in a developer-friendly interface.

It comes in two parts:

A Web Dashboard built with React, Vite, and Tailwind v4, featuring a Neo-Brutalist UI, live SVG telemetry charting, and a custom FastAPI stream engine backend for payload testing.

A standalone Terminal CLI built with Python and rich that does real-time morphing UI updates without spamming your console history.

Both interfaces map out ISP, ASN, and geographic location using IP vectoring, and assign a network grade based on use-case suitability (like 8K streaming vs. simple browsing).

The repo is entirely open-source (MIT). I'd love to hear your feedback on the custom FastAPI testing implementation or the CLI UI!
