Command line applications
Yes, you can create whatever you want - from simple CLI utils , through moderately complex interactive tools (example by me), to complex, full-fledged command line applications (example, another example).
- Anyone down to revive this? Feels like in 2022, there's still a need for this. Seems like it's been dead for a few years. Cannot be installed anymore.

Admit it, you only edit .CONF files with it anyway...
In that spirit: I just found Slap (https://github.com/slap-editor/slap). Looks cool, but haven't installed it yet. Clearly best editor ever!!! Obviously better than vim.

Micro - Text Editor
There is also the slap editor which tries to mimic Sublime in the terminal, but it's very bloated and seems to have been abandoned.

Table and color formats
On Rust/WASM I have been playing around with using TUI which is a lib inspired by the NodeJS library Blessed Contrib which might me a good idea to look at (not sure how well it works with javascript though). I have also used Comfy-table with Rust for simple table output.

I created an htop-like terminal dashboard for viewing and managing docker containers, written in Node
✅ Built with the Node.js, blessed, and blessed-contrib
- I made a terminal utility to monitor some system stats. Was wondering if you guys know of anything better or if I should continue dev work on it since we need it?
