tui-rs VS Nimwave

The TUI is built with the awesome Ratatui [0] library (formerly tui-rs [1]). UX is certainly not my area of expertise and I would not have been able to create Trippy without this library. [0] https://github.com/ratatui-org/ratatui. - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

Rust has great libraries for TUIs. tui-rs (https://github.com/fdehau/tui-rs) is the maintained version, and is pretty new. Less widely known is cursive (https://github.com/gyscos/cursive), which I have yet to try. Aside from the libraries, I just wanted to start a project that would make be better at Rust. The easy distribution with cargo is a huge bonus though. - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago

If you interested in the TUI apps in rust you can start with the crate tui-rs or its revival ratatui. They have examples inside of them which you can start and see the source code to get the basic functionalities. For the text editor you can check examples in the crate tui-textarea.

This app is based on the these two crate in rust (tui-rs , tui-textarea). The text area provide the Emacs motions and I integrated the vim motions there, but the editor in this app as much simpler than the huge VIM and Emacs systems. Source: about 1 year ago

Well I think nim is ideal for TUI programs. The performance of rust with the ergonomics of go is a pretty nice combination. I built ansiwave which is a fairly complex TUI program in nim, and I extracted the TUI stuff into a separate library, nimwave. Whether it is mature enough is a bit subjective but it's mature enough to build ansiwave :P If you try it I'm open to feedback. Source: almost 2 years ago
