I’ve been writing small web apps for internal teams and Bubble Tea has been super helpful for building TUI managers for these apps. The article does a good job explaining some of the finer details of the library.

Thank you. Out of curiosity, what do your "TUI managers" do for your apps?
A lot of the apps need to interface with our ERP's database so I have to build out the interface layer. Since I'm already writing in Go, it's super easy to add a TUI to call the interface layer for testing/ one off interactions. For example, one app has a pretty simple auth rolled into it. I wrote a quick user manager to handle creating and updating users in the database. Recently, I've actually been making more use of Huh since the TUI's usually aren't stateful, but I still really like the model of Bubble Tea
