Leverage CSS, HTML, and Rust to build beautiful, portable, terminal user interfaces. Rink is the cross-framework library that powers [`Dioxus-TUI`](https://github.com/DioxusLabs/dioxus/tree/master/packages/dioxus-tui)
|

## Background
|
|
|
|
You can use Html-like semantics with inline styles, tree hierarchy, components, and more in your [`text-based user interface (TUI)`](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Text-based_user_interface) application.
|
|
|
|
Rink is essentially a port of [Ink](https://github.com/vadimdemedes/ink) but for [`Rust`](https://www.rust-lang.org/). 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:
|
|
|
|
- [x] Flexbox-based layout system
|
|
- [ ] CSS selectors
|
|
- [x] inline CSS support
|
|
- [x] Built-in focusing system
|
|
|
|
* [ ] Widgets
|
|
* [ ] Support for events, hooks, and callbacks<sup>1</sup>
|
|
* [ ] Html tags<sup>2</sup>
|
|
|
|
<sup>1</sup> Basic keyboard, mouse, and focus events are implemented.
|
|
<sup>2</sup> 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.
