TUIs are experiencing something of a renaissance, I think. My hypothesis is that the popularity attracts newcomers who inevitably bring their own preconceptions from other domains. Many are unaware of the state of the art and reinvent the wheel. I don’t think this categorically a bad thing, but it can be a mixed bag of slop and genuinely useful cross-pollination.
Code sharing with their web app. Layouts. Event handling. Not wanting to reimplement all that from
scratch when React and Ink is a popular and full featured option.
TUI development is a lost art these days, apparently.
