[FR] Proposal: add charm.sh to make it a real terminal

Open chris-aeviator opened this issue 2 years ago • 4 comments

This is just a sidenote and not to be taken too seriously as a feature request. I wanted to make you aware of https://charm.sh/ , a rich TUI framework(s) including backend servers. Their tools allow to have outside users connect and authenticate passwordless with SSH, from a hosting perspective this would be one of the lowest possible barriers, since even a low-bandwith user with a 5$ raspberry pi and a cheap display could use it on a 2G connection.

I have a call with @toby this week to discuss this!

Also like what @willmcgugan is doing with Textualize.

Regarding the RaspberryPy, @Zedris was actually able to put our terminal running on his RaspberryPi. The #1 ever person to do that!

if we can get something to render the graphs(roughly) within the terminal and not require x11 the pi could run just headless and guiless fully which would be awesome!

I've been working on a web UI for this, so check that out as well. However, I've been stuck on getting graphs working (in the terminal) as my upstream libraries don't support it. See #1251 and https://github.com/OpenBB-finance/OpenBBTerminal/tree/main/openbb_terminal_web However, for graphs, see this page. Although I've considered it, I haven't had time to try those out yet. But they might work...

There are some graph libs out there - here’s a nice high freq graph (though not a lib)
