gum VS fzf

I don't know why (other than being a Gen X nerd) but I have a bizarre affinity for nicely-written TUI apps of late! Things like btop++ that respond to mouse clicks and smoothly reflow when the terminal window is resized etc...

Shout-out to Charmbracelet's stuff such as Glow (https://github.com/charmbracelet/glow) and Gum (https://github.com/charmbracelet/gum) for rendering markdown nicely in the terminal and for using TUI in your shell scripts

needs gum from https://github.com/charmbracelet/gum;

I need support for an interactive CLI. I love the Symfony terminal—interactive, fast, great UX or something similar to Gum

Omm is built using the charm libraries: https://charm.sh/

Easiest way to do it any language is to shell out to gum: https://github.com/charmbracelet/gum

Here, we will recreate the same program as Huh? example, but using Gum in shell scripts. First, install the Gum binary as per instructions on their GitHub repo here.

The same project has an application called Gum which exposes primitives from their UI framework via a single CLI binary. It's intended to be used from a normal bash script and I've found it really quite pleasant to use.

For example, you could write 'gum choose foo bar baz' to get a nice picker over the three provided options.

Their repo has a ton of examples: https://github.com/charmbracelet/gum

The inspiration for this is the neat project gum (https://github.com/charmbracelet/gum) but I would deliver OS native apps vs. shell scripts.

Install "fzf" [0] and set it up to be used with control+r, there's no going back. You get as a bonus the chance to use fzf in a lot of other places :)

I guess that more advance tool would be "atuin" [1], but it is too much for my use case.

FZF is a command line fuzzy finder. It's an incredibly powerful tool that you can use (at its simplest) to filter lists as you type.

fzf (fuzzy finder)

fzf

FZF (Fuzzy finder) is a command-line application that allows you to turn any list into an interactive menu with support for awesome fuzzy search, which you can read more about here.

So you'll need fzf installed for this example to do anything interesting.

Combining this with fzf, you can have a nice quick shortcut to quickly pick a server to connect to into.

fzf (https://github.com/junegunn/fzf) is really great. Very useful for providing a quick and easy user interface. For example, I use it to fuzzy find inside git branches to have an "improved checkout". I do that since at work branches are usually named "-", it's faster to search for the issue number.

The fzf repo has a guide/example code for ripgrep integration that works pretty well.
