FTXUI

Functional Terminal (X) User interface

A simple C++ library for terminal based user interface.

Demo:

Feature

• Functional style. Inspired by [1] and React
• Simple and elegant syntax (in my opinion).
• Support for UTF8 and fullwidth chars (→ 测试)
• No dependencies.
• Cross platform:
  • Linux (main target)
  • Windows (experimental, thanks to mauve@)
  • Mac (never tested, but must WORK)

Example:

  vbox({
    hbox({
      text(L"left") | border,
      text(L"middle") | border | flex,
      text(L"right") | border,
    }),
    gauge(0.5) | border,
  });
