Anyone working on a TUI library for V?

[xxxserxxx]

Is anyone working on a high-level TUI library for V? Something with the standard set of layouts (vertical, horizontal, grid) and widgets (buttons, labels, lists)?

https://modules.vlang.io/term.ui.html - one of the standard modules.

You can find some TUI projects written in V on https://github.com/vlang/awesome-v

term.ui is low-level. It's like a 2D library for text; it's not a TUI library, and it doesn't provide structures such as layouts, buttons, or lists.

I'm looking for something higher level, ideally an immediate-mode toolkit like vlang.gui. Something like Go's github.com/rivo/tview or github.com/gizak/termui.

Writing a high-level library on primitives as provided by term.ui is a lot of work, and is hard to do well -- it's particularly important and difficult to design a good API. For instance, the GUI library gioui for Go is really good and almost perfect, except that the API uses a confusing type signature pattern. I'm hoping someone else has already written, or is working on, a library for V.

Tauraamui (lilly editor creator) is working on a vlang TUI library called bobatea. Maybe want to check that out or maybe do some collaboration.

I did see bobatea, thanks.
