Using Textual to Build a ChatGPT TUI App
Several libraries, such as urwid or PyTermGUI, allow the development of TUI applications in Python. For enhancing the functionality and aesthetics of TUI apps, they offer some fundamental and more sophisticated utilities. But there is one package that is truly exceptional and might even be so amazing that it sparks a TUI renaissance (I really wanted to put "TUI renaissance" somewhere in this article).

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.

Any Good Recommendations for a Tutorial on PyTermGUI?
Talking about resources, their docs are pretty good and contains some examples too. Documentation: https://ptg.bczsalba.com/pytermgui.html

Create TUI's (Terminal User Interface) using Textual
Have you tried PyTermGUI? It looks promising, but I wonder if there are any pitfalls. I need to build a professional CLI for a robot, and half-baked packages just won't do.

Looking for Github projects with strong communities and Discords. Active and frequently mentoring new-comers.
While the community is relatively small right now, my TUI framework PyTermGUI has a lot of the attributes you're looking for! We don't currently have a section dedicated to this yet, but if you come to the discord I'm sure we can help you :)
- Version 7.2.0 brings automatically generated palettes using color theory!
- The brand-new TIM engine arrives with version 7.0.0!
-
Verison 6.3.0 has cometh, featuring the new InputField!
Check out the changelog here.
- Ask HN: Are there any high-level TUI tools?

Menus in Python
I suspect that the reason you didn't find much is that usually people need a whole textual user interface (or TUI). And there's quite a few libraries for those, like pytermgui or textual, and some more low-level tools in that area like prompt-toolkit

Neat Parallel Output in Python
There is an open issue [1] on GitHub to make it more modular and get rid of markdown and syntax highlighting but I have no hope for rich to get more minimal.

Ask HN: Programmers and Technologists in Scotland
I hope he doesn't mind, but the creator of Rich and Textualize is a good guy, and Scottish: https://www.willmcgugan.com/about/

Python 3.12
They keep getting improved error messaging and this is one of my favorite features. But I'd love if we could get some real rich text. Idk if anyone else uses rich, but it has infected all my programs now. Not just to print with colors, but because it makes debugging so much easier. Not just print(f"{var=}") but the handler[0,1]. Color is so important to these types of things and so is formatting. Plus, the progress bars are nice and have almost completely replaced tqdm for me[2]. They're just easier and prettier.

[2] Side note: does anyone know how to get these properly working when using DDP with pytorch? I get flickering when using this and I think it is actually down to a pytorch issue and how they're handling their loggers and flushing the screen. I know pytorch doesn't want to depend on rich, but hey, pip uses rich so why shouldn't everyone?

colors.crumb - first Crumb usable. Extending Crumb with basic terminal styling and RGB, HEX, ANSI conversion functions.
colors.crumb extends Crumb with basic terminal styling functions and RGB, HEX, ANSI conversion functions. It is in the realm of JavaScript's chalk and Python's rich but slightly more functional 😉.

Textual: Rapid Application Development Framework for Python
I am working on a new python project and one of the first things I added was https://github.com/Textualize/rich because of how easy it is to make things look good in the terminal.

What are you rewriting in rust?
I am not rewriting anything but I'd love to have a library like `rich` in Rust: https://github.com/textualize/rich

I made a library for making user terminal input really really pretty!
You might consider taking inspiration from the rich module. In particular, I like how rich supports inline color theming which seems much more cumbersome in your framework, requiring the use of context managers as well as familiarity with how your framework structures color objects. Other than that though, I'm impressed!
