I am both afraid and impressed.

  same, I can't decide if this clever and going in the right direction, or solving the wrong problem the wrong way. very unique, either way

    Check the list of apps using it. This one got my attention: https://github.com/sindresorhus/emoj https://github.com/sindresorhus/emoj I do use emojipedia.org quite often, so I must admit I find this would be quite useful :D. But the thought of having a framework like React powering this behind the scenes, right on my freaking terminal, makes me think that there's no hope for future generations to keep software development simple, "lean" for the foreseeable future. Imagine using 100MB to search for emojis.

      cool app, I guess my take is: if the terminal renders react, is my terminal a web browser?. Should I be doing my search in a webbrowser instead? If that's not convenient, why is it not convenient? Should the webbrowser experience be fixed instead of bolting webbrowsing in the terminal? and yeah i'm aware of lynx maybe there's some sort of midground where an app is both a display thing and a terminal thing. not sure, but feels like it needs exploring

  It's sort of impressive, but feels like it'd take more time to figure out than to make your app work using the "raw" nodejs tty and readline APIs.

  Honestly react seems a bit heavy for this when a lot of much lighter alternatives are out there
