It does seems niche at this point. One scenario I can see is where you want something more user friendly than pure CLI and where providing a web UI might be too risky for some reason. A TUI could allow users to SSH in to server somewhere and just have TUI app as their shell. It's a bit contrived I grant you that. Personally I found Textual a little weird to use, but better than ncurses. Though it didn't really yield what I wanted. I like the old mainframe style TUI application, those already struck me as being wildly efficient. |

Out of curiosity, have you looked at it's sibling project "rich"?
https://github.com/Textualize/rich
Seems like it provides a TUI toolkit as well, and it looks a bit less weird than the approach Textual uses.
Was thinking of trying it out with a side project recently, but got pulled onto some other stuff instead so haven't yet started. Nor made the choice between them. ;)
