Show HN: Bagels – TUI Expense Tracker

1. Bagels

   1 4 1,702 9.4 Python

   Powerful expense tracker that lives in your terminal.

   

   > Are there really enough benefits from uv to justify it as the only option?

   The author probably really likes uv, thus the biased instructions.

   I also think uv is great, but I wouldn't mention it in the user facing installation instructions. People are used to pip/pipx, thus asking them to install yet another tool might drive potential users away.

   The usual pip or pipx command should work fine. It's listed on PyPI: https://pypi.org/project/Bagels

   I would only mention uv in the Development Setup section (https://github.com/EnhancedJax/Bagels?tab=readme-ov-file#dev...)

3. Ink

   2 71 27,854 6.7 TypeScript

   🌈 React for interactive command-line apps

   

   In rust land there is a Dioxus renderer for TUIs (https://docs.rs/dioxus-tui/latest/dioxus_tui/ but I believe it is no longer one of the supported renderers). In JS there is Ink (https://github.com/vadimdemedes/ink).

4. glow

   3 68 17,363 8.6 Go

   Render markdown on the CLI, with pizzazz! 💅🏻

   

   I don't know why (other than being a Gen X nerd) but I have a bizarre affinity for nicely-written TUI apps of late! Things like btop++ that respond to mouse clicks and smoothly reflow when the terminal window is resized etc...

   Shout-out to Charmbracelet's stuff such as Glow (https://github.com/charmbracelet/glow) and Gum (https://github.com/charmbracelet/gum) for rendering markdown nicely in the terminal and for using TUI in your shell scripts

5. gum

   4 48 19,124 9.3 Go

   A tool for glamorous shell scripts 🎀

6. bottom

   5 84 11,047 9.2 Rust

   Yet another cross-platform graphical process/system monitor.

   

   lazydocker as well. Also a big fan of bottom (https://github.com/ClementTsang/bottom) , which surprisignly enough even though it has charts and everything, it consumes way fewer resources on my system compared to htop.

7. uv

   6 77 45,397 10.0 Rust

   An extremely fast Python package and project manager, written in Rust.

   

   also works; more information: https://github.com/astral-sh/uv#installation

8. textual

   7 163 27,864 10.0 Python

   Lean TUI application framework for Python. Build sophisticated terminal user interfaces with a simple Python API. Run your apps in the terminal and a web browser.

   

   Nice job, you should add it here: https://textual.textualize.io/#built-with-textual
