• Are terminals written in the ncurses library?

  So far I have only seen information that ncurses is a package you would use to write applications for various terminals; what about the terminals themselves? Not only terminal emulators but the actual terminal of something like Ubuntu Server, which I believe to be gnome-terminal. Source: over 1 year ago

• A good python library to replace libtcod for terminal play?

  Iterm2, gnome terminal, xterm, Konsole, macos Terminal, powershell, command, etc.. these all provide a common API which we normally use curses to interface with. But all of them basically reach into something lower level (opengl, vulkan, directx, etc.) to render the text, which ultimately is still pixels on a screen. Source: over 2 years ago

• Terminal commands I use as a frontend developer

  I am using iTerm2 on my macOS. Other available options are Hyper and VS Code’s inbuilt terminal, which I sometimes use for quick tests. You can open a terminal in VS Code by using the keyboard shortcut CMD + J or CTRL + J on Windows, or View → Terminal. - Source: dev.to / about 2 months ago
