- you don't need compiled dependencies - you may work mostly in the terminal and want to fire a quick tool: dev is a lot of that so it's great for this use case - it's cross platform - it works with no X so it works with ssh - it doesn't eat a lot of resources - it's fast to launch - you usually already have a cli entry point, so this is a natural next step. The quick script becomes really nice - it's very constrained, so devs have to focus on the most important things which makes the UI usually better than usual - it's a common denominator so you can generate web ui and native ui form that - TUI have naturally good keyboard workflow for free - it's just really cool
