Google Fonts
Font files available from Google Fonts, and a public issue tracker for all things Google Fonts
Hi again. I have the same issue in my browser, and locally in nvim
NerdFonts (and the right terminal emulator) were needed, and enough, there.
Hoping that I can hot load something from https://www.nerdfonts.com/font-downloads, I'm not sure what from https://fonts.google.com/ has the needed ligatures or symbols.

OMG that's awesome. I've been meaning to goof around with TUI CSS [1] but this looks amazing. Props to the author.
Maybe it's because I cut my teeth on 80s Turbo Pascal but there's something about the TUI that I feel hits an optimum in the simplicity vs use of visual space spectrum so, so lost in a world of Vulkan etc.

This looks awesome and we're fans of the terminal aesthetic at terminal trove (1) (we're biased), it's also great that WebTUI has keyboard shortcuts to go with it.
Not CSS but similarly ratzilla (2)(3) also comes to mind, that allows you to build terminal-themed web applications with Rust and WebAssembly.

Honestly I wouldn’t personally, I’d use a really good components library like https://mantine.dev/ (no affiliation, just a fan) and make your site look similar to your competitors. That’s what people seeing your pitch will expect IMO. Depending who you’re pitching to they might not use a terminal very often.

> Web model is objectively better than [...]
Hard disagree. Modern web browsers are incredibly complex beasts that evolved by amalgamating decades of experimentation, poor non-standards, and elaborate counter-measures to fix that mess. I recommend reading <https://browser.engineering>, or even just building Chromium from source, to gain some appreciation. Most applications would benefit from something much simpler. But it's often practical to use as it is, pretty much exactly like terminal emulators.
The main difference being, terminal emulators are still several orders of magnitude less complex than web browsers, but in spite of that still require a lot of complexity to undo the side-effects of having a serial line between the CPU and the character grid. If you like monospaced fonts and character grids, you can probably render that with plain SDL, bitmap fonts with indexed sprite sheets (no Freetype), and in return get non-broken copy & paste, or even a dock icon. You know, the MVP of GUI.
Try <https://lite-xl.com>, it builds its GUI straight on top of SDL.

You don't even need SDL https://github.com/cmuratori/refterm
