    I need to create a console app with a pretty TUI. I've been looking for a nice Qt wrapper around ncurses, but haven't found one. Has anyone created such a thing?

    The closes I found was LIBYUI, and after that NDK++ or CDK.

    I anyone has built a Qt console app with Ncurses, can you share how you built it? What library(s) did you use?

      Hi,

      I haven't done it but if you want to build something fancy on the command line https://charm.sh/ might be of interest.

        @SGaist I got real excited when I saw their Bubble Tea TUI demo...but then I see it's written in go? Is there a C++ library too? (I can't see one)

        Some good news (for anyone else looking), I found FinalCut (https://github.com/gansm/finalcut) Which looks amazing. And structure was inspired by Qt, so should be easy to understand.

        Perhaps Qt could absorb this into Qt libraries eventually?

          It looks nice and a bit old school :-)

          Based on their documentation's FAQ, you can have interop between go and C++.

            To make pretty TUI, you can use FINAL CUT TUI Framework.
