Integration with Textual?

Open AlloriMD opened this issue 1 month ago • 1 comments

Hello! What an amazing library! I was wondering if you could give some tips about how this might be integrated with Textual TUIs. Do you think this is feasible, i.e. adapting the effects to a Textual widget?

Thanks for the advice!

Depends on what you mean by 'adapting'. There have been some projects that combine TTE and Textual. I don't have any links at the moment, but I've seen something on the Textual discord. TTE, when used as a library, can simply act as a generator which yields strings. You can send those strings to a Textual widget for display. I've considered creating a Textual front-end for TTE as a fun toy for exploring the TTE effects, the TUI would include a pane which allows for tweaking the effect-specific config options and running the effects in a text box.
