Turbo Pascal or Delphi for Text Screen Applications
With FPC, you can use Free Vision, which is a supposed to be like a remake of the old Borland Turbo Vision. Alternatively for C++.
- What is a low-level UI library that allows me to make my own text widgets?

Using byte array for window?
Talking about a window display from byte array sounds like windowing for a purely text based (console based) user interface, like the 1990's Borland's old Turbo Vision. There are modern ports of Turbo Vision, e.g. superquick googling found one at GitHub.

Fx – Terminal JSON Viewer
Pretty cool! I actually wrote something VERY similar a couple of years ago: sless[1]. It's a tool for viewing json-based structured logs. Just like your tool, you can explore into a json object. The difference is, it expects the input to have many json objects, newline separated, and it shows few keys as a preview of the object, to make looking for something in the log easier. It's not quite complete but basic browsing works. It was mainly written to learn more about Urwid[2], a library similar to Curses.

Any guide to creating a terminal application?
In addition to the other great libraries already mentioned, since you're in Python you may want to consider urwid, it's really robust and has a lot of built-ins.
- Menus in Python
-
Grab raw keyboard inputs
To go full in on the latter case, people often use libraries like Cursive (akin to urwid for Python but without the horrendously confusing error messages caused duck typing) or tui.

Textual: The Definitive Guide - Part 1.
If you have experience with text user interfaces in the past, you might come across other frameworks such as urwid, curtsies, asciimatics, prompt-toolkit to name a few. Nevertheless, If you have not, you are just fine because you are in the right place to learn about TUIs in general and using Textual specifically. I’ll show you how to develop a wordle clone step by step.
- Is there a library for creating interactive long running terminal applications?

How can I make a TUI?
Check also urwid. It's more likely a modern text-based interface library for Python. https://github.com/urwid/urwid

What is the correct way to create a console application?
Curses seems difficult to use but you should investigate whether it works with what you want to do. https://urwid.org/ seems fun as an alternative.
