Welcome to the ncurses-toolkit for C++ repository! This project aims to provide a versatile and easy-to-use toolkit for building text-based user interfaces (TUIs) in C++ using the ncurses library. Designed specifically for Linux environments, this toolkit empowers developers to create dynamic and interactive console applications with ease.
- Menu Class: Our toolkit includes a robust Menu class to kickstart your TUI development journey.
- Dialog Box Class: Our Dialog Box Class provides a versatile solution for creating interactive dialogue boxes within your text-based user interface (TUI).
