I hadn’t heard of Marvin before but it looks interesting. At first I thought this TUI was just a convenience interface on top of the ChatGPT web service but it’s quite a bit more than that.

Having dug into the docs for ten minutes, the library as a whole seems to be in the same space as langchain. Some of the starting abstractions are similar but overall it seems to take a higher-level approach with a focus on clarity and convenience. Will definitely try this out. Would also love to hear more about the origins and philosophy if any maintainers are about!

Edit: As an aside: I have found Textual quite difficult to get to grips with in the past. Too much magic, maybe. Does anyone know of any good alternatives at a similar level of abstraction? I don’t want to get down in the weeds to knock up a simple TUI.
