#2Extra points for the awesome demo GIF!
Re: Ratatui
#3Seems like especially for the last year or so, there have been a significant amount of interest in single-language oriented (instead of a single core library w/N language bindings, winking at a particular one) TUI libraries that are getting better and better (potentially because some of them were able to attract VC money). Two of them off top of my head is Textual (by textualize.io) for Python and BubbleTea (by charm.sh) for Go.

Spectre.Console for dotnet.

#5I really wish there was a more react/swiftui-esque TUI library. One day I'll get around to fixing the fundamental flaws in my crate [0]

For me all of them have Turbo Vision for Turbo Pascal 6.0 in MS-DOS, circa 1990, as baseline to beat.
Or the various Clipper based TUI for business data entry, as another example.
Since they are catching up with the past, they should improve upon it, not just revisit it.

#7Use ratatui in all my tooling, it’s great. Very simple immediate mode api that eschews most of the complex framework insanity.

is there a good publicly available video that demonstrates what is good about these user interfaces, or alternatively, something that a non-expert user could run in dosbox to get a feeling? is the notably excellent part the user experience of the things that people built, or the library calling interface, or both?
business data entry seems like something that probably requires an experienced user running the application to show what's good and bad about it
my own 'baseline to beat' is fractint, which is pretty much unchanged in xfractint, which you can install from apt on debian. you just have to imagine it running fullscreen on a svga
