Fang, the CLI Starter Kit
It would be really cool if you Fang could generate a TUI form for you with https://github.com/charmbracelet/huh (by the same org). Is something like that on the roadmap?
Similar work: https://github.com/chriskiehl/Gooey and https://github.com/Sorcerio/Argparse-Interface
I've wanted to do this for my own CLI framework since 2023 ( https://github.com/bbkane/warg/issues/71 ), but I still haven't gotten around to it :D

Gooey: Turn almost any Python command line program into a full GUI application
Hey! Cool project! I have a question: why do you dump out sys.argv to a local file in the CWD? [0] tmp.txt is hardly a unique name… or am I missing something and this never triggers?

Python GUIs
I love gooey: https://github.com/chriskiehl/Gooey
It allows me to quickly slap a GUI on an existing script that accepts command-line-arguments. In the end, I get the best of both world: Discoverability from the GUI, automation through the script, and automatic feature parity between the two.
Downside: Control over the GUI layout is basic, and only "standard" GUI features work, but I never felt limited when using it.

Launch HN: Onu (YC W23) – Turn scripts into internal tools in minutes
similar for local/individual usage:
https://github.com/chriskiehl/Gooey - take a python-CLI, make a TK-windows
and then probably even simple dashboarding like streamlit.
