Most of the development time went into making GoVibes interactive and look pretty. Perhaps, that effort could have been better spent on making it cross-platform and functional, but again, I'm its sole user, so it doesn't matter. Anyway, I found BubbleTea, a library for building interactive CLI(TUI) tools in Golang. The library surely had a learning curve. It took me a week to wrap my head around how all things tie together. There are also a lot of prebuilt components(Bubbles) which makes it super easy to build a pretty, user-friendly TUI.
