This TUI is really beautiful. Looking at those rounded corners I am wondering if it is using some specific font created just for TUI.

They're in the Unicode box drawing block. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Box-drawing_character
I am aware of those, I have used them, but this font has rounded corners on boxes, that's why I believe it is a custom font.
The code references FiraCode:

But the actual character is: ╯

256F ╯ Box Drawings Light Arc Up And Left

Baked into the Textual framework!
Textual automatically has a rounded border style for containers!
