Rink
A beautiful terminal user interfaces library in Rust.
Leverage CSS, HTML, and Rust to build beautiful, portable, terminal user interfaces. Rink is the cross-framework library that powers Dioxus-TUI
Background
You can use Html-like semantics with inline styles, tree hierarchy, components, and more in your text-based user interface (TUI)
application.
Rink is essentially a port of Ink but for Rust
. Rink doesn't depend on Node.js or any other JavaScript runtime, so your binaries are portable and beautiful.
Limitations
- Subset of Html Terminals can only render a subset of HTML. We support as much as we can.
- Particular frontend design Terminals and browsers are and look different. Therefore, the same design might not be the best to cover both renderers.
Status
WARNING: Rink is currently under construction!
Rendering a Dom works fine, but the ecosystem of widgets is not ready yet. Additionally, some bugs in the flexbox implementation might be quirky at times.
Features
Rink features:
- Flexbox-based layout system
- CSS selectors
- inline CSS support
- Built-in focusing system
- Widgets
- Support for events, hooks, and callbacks1
- Html tags2
1 Basic keyboard, mouse, and focus events are implemented.
2 Currently, most HTML tags don't translate into any meaning inside of Rink. So an input
element won't mean anything nor does it have any additional functionality.
