GOCUI is a minimalist Go package for building console user interfaces (TUIs) with overlapping views, keybindings, mouse support, and colored text. It provides a small, concurrent-safe API for creating terminal-based interactive applications.
Use cases
- build a terminal dashboard in go
- create a tui app with keybindings
- write a console ui with mouse support
- make a cli tool with interactive views
- build terminal widgets and layouts in go
When to choose
- you want a small, minimalist TUI library in Go
- you need overlapping views and runtime-modifiable GUIs
- you prefer a simple io.ReadWriter-based view model
When to avoid
- you need a full-featured widget toolkit with extensive components
- you are building a graphical (non-terminal) application
- you want a maintained library with frequent updates
