I think you are spot on classifying the project as “for people who want to write GUI”, based on the GitHub read me (which has screenshots) it does not appear to be a tui on the web at all
https://github.com/Textualize/textual-web https://github.com/Textualize/textual-web
It looks like on the web it is rendering widgets that the library can also render via tui on the terminal. So it seems the title is quite misleading. The web based ones are not using font glyphs to build up a ui.
- AnonymouX47 3y agoUmm... actually, it's still all text / font glyphs. Basically, it works via a terminal emulator running in the browser, rendering to a canvas.
- MobiusHorizons 3y agoack, I was fooled by the screenshots. That is even less advisable than I had feared. the widgets would likely have very poor accessibility if they are implemented as text on canvas.
