(not sure where to post this…)

I had an idea there might be a TUI lib for typescript. A duckduckgo search came up with an article that described exactly what I wanted!
So of course I immediately searched for this fabled tui lib. A quick search didn’t reveal anything, and npm can’t seem to find it either! https://www.npmjs.com/search?q=Tui
Navigating directly to the npm package page reveals a 10 year old got repo with no actual code… (https://github.com/basarat/tui)

What the scuff is this world coming to?!
This seems to absolutely align with my experience of using LLMs

(Also accepting suggestions for typescript TUI libs that actually exist!)

    What do you mean by TUI? Terminal User Interface? If so, inquirer is nice for CLI prompts to the user for input

      Yeh, basically.
      The project I’m working on is a lot of typescript. And a part of it is a bunch of nodejs admin/management stuff.
      I’m using Commander at the moment and it’s… Fine.
      Thought I might try a terminal/text user interface.
      I found this ( https://www.npmjs.com/package/ink ) and it looks good
