React for Command-Line Interfaces! (feat. Ink)
summary
Demos show a working pipeline that renders React components as terminal output using Ink custom renderer and emits ANSI codes so text styling and cursor moves work rather than manual escape hell. Layout uses flexbox layout in terminal, input handles arrow keys, and Markdown rendering produces menus. Project scaffolding resembles Next with Pastel routing like Next for subcommands, and for full-screen interactive apps there is react-blessed for full-screen apps, all presented as concrete libraries and runnable examples.
