What is your opinion on TUI applications
With the AI agents, comes the resurgence of TUIs, what is your opinion of them?
Design-wise I personally prefer the color, font and sizing consistency. I love the fact that keyboard is first class citizen and would prefer to use TUI to gtk/electron/windows-ui wherever possible.
They rock. I've made a couple which act as proxies for previously web-only activities. e.g. a Github Issue manager app which generates a little kanban board for me locally. The barrier for entry feels much lower and doesn't have the same "spinning up a new next.js app" fatigue. And I echo your thoughts with design consistency, having it just inherit your terminal theme makes for a nice visual experience. My favourite in this new wave of tui apps is micasa.dev
i love k9s, it iss the best tui I've seen before the AI era(there are too many TUIs in the AI era, I can't keep up with them)
I was a fan, until I found in developing them, the same friction of a frontend developer.
All of a sudden, I realized that the command line is already the TUI I want.
Commands can be piped, while graphic interaction cannot.
Now I rely on standard input and standard output, and `fzf` for all the rest.
