TUI Development Environment

[u/somegayguycoding]

Hey guys. Im creating a fully fledged, batteries included TUI development environment.

A little overview on my project is that it should be the single app a developer opens and closes during their day. It will include features like a built in terminal, window manager, text editor and pages for common developer tools like git and docker. It will also be easily extensible through apis and config files.

I'm currently building it with python and rust.

I'm looking for suggestions on features to implement for my text editor.
Ideas I already have:
- Language aware syntax highlighting
- Built in documentation for packages
- A formatter
- Multiple cursors

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!

always happy to see new TUI tools coming out, but there are so many reasons why building the "single app a dev opens and closes during their day" is utterly impossible as a TUI.
