I really like this trend of "making the terminal great again". Between rich/textual in python and lipgloss/bubble tea for golang, this turns cmd from "the default ugly stuff that is easy to produce" into "something fun and pretty".

Also note that those projects have the (not anymore) secret goal to also produce a web app from the same code base automatically.

I imagine native will follow, or wasm, or something. Nevertheless, having the terminal as the smallest denominator for UI makes a lot of sense for small utilities. You won't build the next Figma with it but a lot of scripts could benefit from that.
