There's `blessed` [0], a plain JS lib similar to `ncurses`. There's also `react-blessed` [1], which is a React renderer that targets `blessed` as the display layer, and `ink` [2], which is also a text-based React renderer but using its own display layer.

If you plan on using blessed, there’s also blessed-contrib, which is a library of widgets for blessed.

This is so cool! I knew about Ink, but not Blessed. Curious as to people’s experience using Blessed-React vs Ink.


I saw blessed, thank you, but the last commit was in 2016, and I'm a bit wary of a JS library with that level of activity.
