Excited to try it out as well. I often need to build simple CLI based apps in ruby so often would reach for TTY Toolkit: https://ttytoolkit.org/

However, I feel like it's in maintenance mode at this point, so glad to see some new options available.

Shouldn't some software be allowed to be done? Maintenance mode on a TUI library seems a reasonable place to be.

Sure. I was probably trying to be too polite and didn't want to use the word "abandoned", but that's probably a better term for the library at this point. There's a good amount of open issues and PRs in many of the component gems that haven't been addressed in years and requests to help maintain it have gone unanswered[0].

Ah yes, quite a different kettle of fish.

sure it’s a good TUI library, but is it agentic?
