      Hold CRAP, that's cool! How does this only have 4 points before my upvote?

      How did you accomplish this?

          :) reminds me of a contemporary: assembler.org

        I mean, if you look visually it looks like it's working. Once I tried interacting with it, everything is broken in a subtle way. Website has the same vibe, it has nav bar, it does it's thing, but it's broken in many different ways (media breakpoints, animations, etc).

        I think companies who buy software by feature checklists would love this sort of products.

          On the other hand, I think this would solve Claude Code's current problems with their React-rendered terminal app.

            It'll be still broken as it'll be claude bugs + frankentui bugs.

            What’s the purpose of this nasty comment?

              I love TUIs and spent some time exploring the project. I guess you posted it here to hear some feedback.

              The landing page compares it to xtermjs as superior version. What I find strange, for example, FrankenTUI has a code explorer tab, but it's impossible to select any text or interact with a scrollbar. The "hotspots" section in the codeview misinterprets mouse clicks, highlighting line that is different from a click.

              If it meant to be keyboard-first, I find focus management implementation unintuitive and shortcuts hard to discover.
