SuperLightTUI lets you build Rust terminal UIs in 5 lines — no App trait, no message enums, just a closure. It ships with flexbox layout, Tailwind-style chaining, 50+ widgets, and zero unsafe code. tui.builders is its visual editor: drag widgets onto a canvas, tweak properties, switch between 7 themes, and export production-ready Rust (or Ink/TypeScript) instantly. No signup required. Whether you code by hand or vibe-code with AI, the small grammar means less boilerplate and faster iteration.

Hey everyone! 👋
I built SuperLightTUI because Rust terminal UI frameworks felt harder than they needed to be. Most ask for a lot of boilerplate just to print "hello world." SLT skips all of that — write a closure and you're running.
The idea: Rust's correctness guarantees, without the ceremony.
What's in the box:
50+ widgets (tables, charts, markdown, file picker, tree…) — including AI-native ones like StreamingText and ToolApproval
Flexbox layout + Tailwind-style method chaining
Animation system (tween, spring, keyframes) and 10 theme presets with runtime hot-switching
There's also tui.builders — a visual canvas where you drag widgets, pick a theme, and export working Rust or Ink/TypeScript code. No signup needed.
MIT licensed, zero unsafe, designed so that both humans and AI agents can pick it up from the docs. Feedback welcome!
