tui-world

⚠️ Work in Progress: This library is in development.

A state and event management library for TUIs built with ratatui.

Core Concepts

• World - A container that holds application state
• Keybindings - Key binding registry with built-in help display
• Focus - Tracks which widget is active
• Layout - Tracks widget areas for mouse hit testing
• Mouse - Mouse click handling per widget

Example

use tui_world::prelude::*;

// Store state in world
world.insert(MyAppState::default());

// Register keybindings
let kb = world.get_mut::<Keybindings>();
kb.bind(
    Context::Widget(MY_WIDGET_ID),
    KeyBinding::key(KeyCode::Enter),
    "Select",
    "Select the current item",
    |world| {
        world.get_mut::<MyAppState>().select();
    },
);

// Handle events
Event::Key(key).handle(&mut world);
Event::Mouse(mouse).handle(&mut world);
