iocraft is a Rust crate for building beautiful CLIs, TUIs, and text-based output using a declarative, React-like component API. It supports flexbox layouts, styling, hooks, event handling, and fullscreen terminal applications across Unix and Windows.
Use cases
- build a tui in rust
- create styled terminal output with colors and borders
- make an interactive cli with text input
- build a fullscreen terminal app
- render formatted text layouts in logs
- rust alternative to ink or react for terminals
When to choose
- you want a React-like declarative API for terminal UIs in Rust
- you need flexbox-based layouts and styled text output
- you need cross-platform Unix and Windows terminal support
When to avoid
- you need a GUI rather than text-based interfaces
- you prefer an immediate-mode TUI approach like ratatui
- you are not working in Rust
