terminal lib

[fabiopesaju]

please, could you guys tell me if there is any lib/framework/component, that facilitates the development for terminals... something that allows a style similar to this project: https://github.com/extrawurst/gitui ???

Besides the thing Alextp has already linked (which is my newest lib), I've already attempted to write a framework for TUI applications a while ago, see: https://github.com/Warfley/LazTextForms

It provides labels, check boxes, edits, listboxes and buttons and works ok-ish. An example project can be found also on my github: https://github.com/Warfley/PokeTeamBuilder

But my new library (https://github.com/Warfley/LazTermUtils the one Alextp linked) is much more robust and I would highly recommend you using it instead, but you need to implement the whole TUI stuff yourself.

That said, in the coming weeks I might actually rewrite the TUI library, but until them, this is the best I can offer.

Besides my libs there is also Free Vision, maybe have a look into it: https://wiki.freepascal.org/Free_Vision
