## FTXUI
<i>Functional Terminal (X) User interface</i>
A simple C++ library for terminal based user interface.
## Feature
* Functional style. Inspired by
[[1]](https://hackernoon.com/building-reactive-terminal-interfaces-in-c-d392ce34e649?gi=d9fb9ce35901)
and [React](https://reactjs.org/)
* Simple and elegant syntax (in my opinion).
* Support for [UTF8](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTF-8) and [fullwidth chars](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halfwidth_and_fullwidth_forms) (→ 测试).
* No dependencies.
* Cross platform. Linux/mac (main target), Windows (experimental thanks to contributors), WebAssembly.
* Keyboard & mouse navigation.
## Operating systems
- Webassembly
- Linux
- MacOS
- Windows
## Example
~~~cpp
vbox({
hbox({
text("left") | border,
text("middle") | border | flex,
text("right") | border,
}),
gauge(0.5) | border,
});

## Short gallery
#### DOM
This module defines a hierarchical set of Element. An element manages layout and can be responsive to the terminal dimensions.
They are declared in [<ftxui/dom/elements.hpp>](https://arthursonzogni.github.io/FTXUI/elements_8hpp_source.html
)
<details><summary>Layout</summary>
Element can be arranged together:
- horizontally with `hbox`
- vertically with `vbox`
- inside a grid with `gridbox`
- wrap along one direction using the `flexbox`.
Element can become flexible using the the `flex` decorator.
[Example](https://arthursonzogni.github.io/FTXUI/examples_2dom_2vbox_hbox_8cpp-example.html) using `hbox`, `vbox` and `filler`.

[Example](https://arthursonzogni.github.io/FTXUI/examples_2dom_2gridbox_8cpp-example.htmlp) using gridbox:

[Example](https://github.com/ArthurSonzogni/FTXUI/blob/master/examples/dom/hflow.cpp) using flexbox:

[See](https://arthursonzogni.github.io/FTXUI/examples_2dom_2hflow_8cpp-example.html) also this [demo](https://arthursonzogni.com/FTXUI/examples/?file=component/flexbox).
</details>
<details><summary>Style</summary>
An element can be decorated using the functions:
- `bold`
- `dim`
- `inverted`
- `underlined`
- `blink`
- `color`
- `bgcolor`
[Example](https://arthursonzogni.github.io/FTXUI/examples_2dom_2style_gallery_8cpp-example.html)
![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/4759106/147244118-380bf834-9e33-40df-9ff0-07c10f2598ef.png)
FTXUI support the pipe operator. It means: `decorator1(decorator2(element))` and `element | decorator1 | decorator2` can be used.
</details>
<details><summary>Colors</summary>
FTXUI support every color palettes:

</details>
<details><summary>Border and separator</summary>
Use decorator border and element separator() to subdivide your UI:
```cpp
auto document = vbox({
text("top"),
separator(),
text("bottom"),
}) | border;
```
[Demo](https://arthursonzogni.github.io/FTXUI/examples_2dom_2separator_8cpp-example.html):

</details>
<details><summary>Text and paragraph</summary>
A simple piece of text is represented using `text("content")`.
To support text wrapping following spaces the following function are provided:
```cpp
Element paragraph(std::string text);
Element paragraphAlignLeft(std::string text);
Element paragraphAlignRight(std::string text);
Element paragraphAlignCenter(std::string text);
Element paragraphAlignJustify(std::string text);
```

#### Component
The ftxui/component is needed when you want to produce dynamic UI, reactive to the user's input. It defines a set of ftxui::Component. A component reacts to Events (keyboard, mouse, resize, ...) and Render Element (see previous section).
Prebuilt components are declared in [<ftxui/component/component.hpp>](https://arthursonzogni.github.io/FTXUI/component_8hpp_source.html)
