    I think a lot of Ratatui apps will tend to land on similar concepts for your app. There's a few good examples of apps using a component approach rather than just widgets that I'm aware of:

    - https://github.com/sxyazi/yazi

    - https://github.com/TaKO8Ki/gobang

    - https://github.com/nomadiz/edma

    Perhaps the intuitive crate would make a good abstraction on top of Ratatui?

    Thank you for your appreciation!

    In fact, `G` and `gg` are already supported in Yazi. You just need to set `arrow -999` for `gg`, and `arrow 999` for `G`. I've added it to the default keybindings: https://github.com/sxyazi/yazi/commit/c540542da49004a3084b1d...

    The enhanced find/filter feature has been noted in the Feature Requests (https://github.com/sxyazi/yazi/issues/51), and I will make an effort to implement it soon. Of course, PRs welcome if possible :)

    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.

    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
    9 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 7 Sep 2023
    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
