https://github.com/markmarkoh/lt I wrote lt as a TUI for navigating/searching Linear issues. It is read-only right now.

Very cool! Thanks for sharing. I've never written Rust but I've heard of ratatui - how do you like it?

Rust is a joy to work with 85% of the time. Ratatui was a fun and easy way to get a TUI up and running.

Nothing prevents a Web app from having good keyboard shortcuts; Gmail and Linear are great examples. GitHub becomes much more comfortable with the Refined GitHub extension. It adds a bunch of keyboard shortcuts, among a ton of other small improvements.

I think nothing prevents a web app from having keyboard shortcuts, but more often than not what I see is web apps having bad keyboard shortcuts that hijack the browser's natural behavior (taking over -f is a good example). I think often people go at this as if it's an Electron app and not a browser that has literall…

Yes, the unfortunate tradition of hijacking Ctrl+F is annoying. OTOH the forming tradition to use Ctrl+K to show a command palette / command line is commendable.

This is cool. I'm not a fan of TUIs at all (poor man's GUI if you ask me) but anything beats the Jira website trash. I will definitely be curious to see how much of Jira's abysmal performance is due to the website design (got to be a fair bit given how badly things like drag and drop perform) and how much is due to the server.

I consider it the frugal man's GUI. Right now looking at top, any time I load a browser tab with Jira content chromium spikes to the top of the list. I'm not even doing anything with it.

Sure but that's just because the Jira website is awful. There's no reason you couldn't design a more frugal version, or a native GUI that was faster.
