Is there any way to host an executable/application REMOTELY that anyone with a terminal can run/interact with without any installation? Currently, I'm limited to CURLable web scripts, but those are tedious and don't have interactable menus or animations or anything.
Which language do you use? Here is a Rust implementation of an SSH server. It handles opening the port to listen, creating the client connection, and retrieving data from the client (using getch). Then you can funnel that to an NCurses libraryand send the output back to the user

Hey Rustaceans! Got an easy question? Ask here (39/2021)!
Maybe this https://crates.io/crates/ncurses can help.

When to flush()?
This is an example from the Termion crate:

How difficult is ncurses?
There are plenty of terminal UI libraries that are actually nice to work with. For Python, there's Textual and PyTermGUI. For Rust, there's ratatui and Cursive (or, if you want something a bit lower level, crosster or termion). For Go, there's bubbletea.

Writing to a real stdout in the following adapter pattern
But let's say I want to write to Termion's raw terminal: stdout().into_raw_mode().unwrap();

How to write the mock version of this trait method?
And I implemented it for a TermWriter struct (Note: DetectCursorPos comes from the Termion crate):

How to test the cursor's position in the following test?
The following code stores the user input and cursor position in a raw terminal (using Termion):

Testing the stdout of a RawTerminal
That being said, termion has already handle this for us (an example).

Termion: recreating Backspace for deleting characters
I'm trying to recreate the Backspace functionality with Termion in raw mode. Right now, it works as expected if I'm deleting the last character. But If I move to the left with the Left arrow, then delete a character, the characters on the right of the cursor won't move to the left.

When rustc developers run out of error messages to write
Termion crate (https://crates.io/crates/termion), and very careful observation of a rust error. Hope your friend finds it useful ;)

Hey Rustaceans! Got an easy question? Ask here (35/2021)!
If you just need basic printing and limited input then I'd choose either crossterm or termion. If you want a full tui, then tui-rs is really good.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing ncurses-rs and Termion you can also consider the following projects:
Cursive - A Text User Interface library for the Rust programming language
crossterm - Cross platform terminal library rust
Native Windows GUI - A light windows GUI toolkit for rust
QML-rust - QML (Qt Quick) bindings for Rust language
imgui-rs - Rust bindings for Dear ImGui
tui-rs - Build terminal user interfaces and dashboards using Rust
nfd-rs - OS-native file dialogs on Linux, OS X and Windows
nfd2 - OS native dialogs for Windows, MacOS, and Linux
