Is Nim a good language to write Linux TUI applications?
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.

The worst part is there's absolutely nothing stopping anyone for making the same principles work in the browser. Zero. Nada. It's trivially proven by compiling apps to wasm and running in a terminal emulator but there's nothing stopping anyone from building react-terminal-like or whatever except that... I don't even know what since we've got https://github.com/Textualize/textual-web.
People have thrown out decades of UX research and engineering out of the window because it isn't cool anymore. Makes me sick.

Flameshow: A Terminal Flamegraph Viewer
This is awesome work and textual being able to support terminal or web (https://github.com/Textualize/textual-web) also gives hope that this can be more than a terminal app. I'm hoping that in the future features like this can be standard in Linux's perf tool, for example, Firefox profiler support was recently added as a Google summer-of-code contribution: https://perf.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Tutorial#Firefox_Prof...

Textual Web: TUIs for the Web
It appears that, by default, the textual-web command makes a WebSocket connection to textualize-dev.io and hosts through that. Unlike regular HTTP which (usually) requires a server, WebSocket is a session-based network protocol that allows for long connections with bidirectional traffic.
Take a look at the repo, because the implementation’s fairly small and the README has more info: https://github.com/Textualize/textual-web
