Monochrome terminal inspired theme
Here one would create a TUI (Terminal UI) to be shown in a simulated monochrome terminal.
A mockup has been created below using vim and cool-retro-term.
It's important that the text is rendered slowly to create that 9600 baud feel.
I see several ways rendering the terminal.
- With css
- With canvas and javascript
Using css, one gets all the text selection and screenreader stuff built into the browser. However this requires a lot more work to make convincing.
I think that with some effort, one can get a very nice looking terminal with canvas rendering.

Can i assign myself to this issue?
I've assigned it to you.
The screenshot looks awesome! Looking forward to seeing it implemented.
Yesterday, I setup our Razzia machine with cool-retro-term and stregsystemet-cli to stand beside our ordinary stregsystem-client.
I still think we should have a web-based edition of this, especially since the 9600 baud feel is missing

Ahh nice. I don't think we can compete with cool retro term, tho. But we can probably replicate some of the effects.

I still think it's worthwhile to make this feature for an easter-egg in the ordinary front-end, although an eventual implementation might depend on #261
