brick VS musikcube

Thank you!

"stash", the initial MVP version, is written in Haskell. I chose Haskell mostly because of https://github.com/jtdaugherty/brick, which is a wonderful TUI library. I also tend to prefer functional programming languages when I have the choice.

However, Text 's backend and website are currently implemented in Clojure. The app is in C + Flutter (Dart).

Brick? Hadn’t heard of it so leaving for myself and others

Brick is a great library for terminal applications. I’d say start with the examples or take a look at some tutorials that use it, then just go at it.

Thanks. Yeah I was surprised myself at how much of a capable tool whiptail turned out to be. Especially since I'd heard it has issues with returning values, or not being as capable as dialog. I was actually in the midst of choosing between it, Haskell's brick, or python's PromptToolkit, yet settled on whiptail to see how far a bash approach could take me.

Written in Haskell with brick.

A declarative Unix terminal UI programming library written in Haskell (by jtdaugherty)

There is brick[1][2] for Haskell. Other languages may have something similar.

[2] https://github.com/jtdaugherty/brick/blob/master/docs/samtay...

In that vein, a declarative way to build (Text) UI like html+css. Or something along the lines of what Brick is for terminals.

Nord theme for Musickube

Turns out someone already made an issue about this upstream, and even made a working ebuild, although it was published to his/her overlay which is not listed on overlays.gentoo.org yet sadly. If you're curious what was wrong and how it was fixed: the github issue

If it's just for music and you dig the look of TUI apps then musikcube has built-in server functionality. You install it on both the server and clients but keep the library on the server. It's light and works well, including for giant collections. There's apparently an android app too, musikdroid, but I haven't tried it. I haven't tried the windows or mac client apps either, so I can't vouch for any of them, but it's great on linux.

VLC can be used to play a file from the command line, but there is no user interface. Players like cmus and musikcube have a text based interface and library management.

Well, there's Musikcube. I think it's a solid choice over cmus.

music player: musikcube

Dont know about the rest but the top left music player looks like musikcube with a skin on it. https://musikcube.com/

I use https://github.com/clangen/musikcube on a daily basis
