A CLI (as in Command Line Interface) to delete your tweets based on faves, RTs, and time. There are some services out there with a friendly web interface, but this is not one of them. You must know the basics of working with a UNIX terminal and configuring a Twitter API app, as this will only work if you have a Twitter Developer account. Due to the irrevocable nature of tweet deletion, all delete commands are dry-run true, meaning you must call all of them with a --dry-run=false flag if you want them to really do something. Called with --dry-run=false, there is no way to revoke tweet deletion. They are just gone, disappeared into the ether (or the stashed in the Twitter-owned secret place you have no access to without a mandate since nothing gets really deleted from the web these days, folks). This tool won't delete all of your tweets in one fell swoop; it is more of a way to delete your old tweets from time to time. The Twitter API rate limits are relatively complicated, and I don't even wanna go there, but if you do intend on deleting all of your tweets, you can do it with this CLI and some perseverance. I did delete more than 100k of mine by using this script every day for a couple of weeks. The more tweets you delete, the fewer of them you have, and with time the rate limits won't be that much of a problem. I Delete My Tweets (IDMT) can delete your tweets by fetching them via API using an APP you will have to set up yourself. Still, it can also delete tweets from an CSV (comma-separated file) that you can generate from the archive you can request from twitter.com by going to Settings and privacy > Your Account > Download an archive of your data. It is out of the scope of this CLI to generate the CSV (at the moment) but there are scripts out there that can do this for you.

Sym is a ruby library (gem) that offers both the command line interface (CLI) and a set of rich Ruby APIs, which make it rather trivial to add encryption and decryption of sensitive data to your development or deployment workflow. For additional security the private key itself can be encrypted with a user-generated password. For decryption using the key the password can be input into STDIN, or be defined by an ENV variable, or an OS-X Keychain Entry. Unlike many other existing encryption tools, Sym focuses on getting out of your way by offering a streamlined interface with password caching (if MemCached is installed and running locally) in hopes to make encryption of application secrets nearly completely transparent to the developers. Sym uses symmetric 256-bit key encryption with the AES-256-CBC cipher, same cipher as used by the US Government. For password-protecting the key Sym uses AES-128-CBC cipher. The resulting data is zlib-compressed and base64-encoded. The keys are also base64 encoded for easy copying/pasting/etc. Sym accomplishes encryption transparency by combining several convenient features: 1. Sym can read the private key from multiple source types, such as pathname, an environment variable name, a keychain entry, or CLI argument. You simply pass either of these to the -k flag — one flag that works for all source types. 2. By utilizing OS-X Keychain on a Mac, Sym offers truly secure way of storing the key on a local machine, much more secure then storing it on a file system, 3. By using a local password cache (activated with -c) via an in-memory provider such as memcached, sym invocations take advantage of password cache, and only ask for a password once per a configurable time period, 4. By using SYM_ARGS environment variable, where common flags can be saved. This is activated with sym -A, 5. By reading the key from the default key source file ~/.sym.key which requires no flags at all, 6. By utilizing the --negate option to quickly encrypt a regular file, or decrypt an encrypted file with extension .enc 7. By implementing the -t (edit) mode, that opens an encrypted file in your $EDITOR, and replaces the encrypted version upon save & exit, optionally creating a backup. 8. By offering the Sym::MagicFile ruby API to easily read encrypted files into memory. Please refer the module documentation available here: https://www.rubydoc.info/gems/sym

Ame Ame provides a simple command-line interface API for Ruby¹. It can be used to provide both simple interfaces like that of ‹rm›² and complex ones like that of ‹git›³. It uses Ruby’s own classes, methods, and argument lists to provide an interface that is both simple to use from the command-line side and from the Ruby side. The provided command-line interface is flexible and follows commond standards for command-line processing. ¹ See http://ruby-lang.org/ ² See http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/utilities/rm.html ³ See http://git-scm.com/docs/ § Usage Let’s begin by looking at two examples, one where we mimic the POSIX¹ command-line interface to the ‹rm› command. Looking at the entry² in the standard, ‹rm› takes the following options: = -f. = Do not prompt for confirmation. = -i. = Prompt for confirmation. = -R. = Remove file hierarchies. = -r. = Equivalent to /-r/. It also takes the following arguments: = FILE. = A pathname or directory entry to be removed. And actually allows one or more of these /FILE/ arguments to be given. We also note that the ‹rm› command is described as a command to “remove directory entries”. ¹ See http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/utilities/contents.html ² See http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/utilities/rm.html Let’s turn this specification into one using Ame’s API. We begin by adding a flag for each of the options listed above: class Rm &lt; Ame::Root flag 'f', '', false, 'Do not prompt for confirmation' flag 'i', '', nil, 'Prompt for confirmation' do |options| options['f'] = false end flag 'R', '', false, 'Remove file hierarchies' flag 'r', '', nil, 'Equivalent to -R' do |options| options['r'] = true end A flag¹ is a boolean option that doesn’t take an argument. Each flag gets a short and long name, where an empty name means that there’s no corresponding short or long name for the flag, a default value (true, false, or nil), and a description of what the flag does. Each flag can also optionally take a block that can do further processing. In this case we use this block to modify the Hash that maps option names to their values passed to the block to set other flags’ values than the ones that the block is associated with. As these flags (‘i’ and ‘r’) aren’t themselves of interest, their default values have been set to nil, which means that they won’t be included in the Hash that maps option names to their values when passed to the method. ¹ See http://disu.se/software/ame-1.0/api/user/Ame/Class#flag-class-method There are quite a few other kinds of options besides flags that can be defined using Ame, but flags are all that are required for this example. We’ll get to the other kinds in later examples. Next we add a “splus” argument. splus 'FILE', String, 'File to remove' A splus¹ argument is like a Ruby “splat”, that is, an Array argument at the end of the argument list to a method preceded by a star, except that a splus requires at least one argument. A splus argument gets a name for the argument (‹FILE›), the type of argument it represents (String), and a description. ¹ See http://disu.se/software/ame-1.0/api/user/Ame/Class#splus-class-method Then we add a description of the command (method) itself: description 'Remove directory entries' Descriptions¹ will be used in help output to assist the user in using the command. ¹ See http://disu.se/software/ame-1.0/api/user/Ame/Class#description-class-method Finally, we add the Ruby method that’ll implement the command (all preceding code included here for completeness): class Rm &lt; Ame::Root version '1.0.0' flag 'f', '', false, 'Do not prompt for confirmation' flag 'i', '', nil, 'Prompt for confirmation' do |options| options['f'] = false end flag 'R', '', false, 'Remove file hierarchies' flag 'r', '', nil, 'Equivalent to -R' do |options| options['r'] = true end splus 'FILE', String, 'File to remove' description 'Remove directory entries' def rm(files, options = {}) require 'fileutils' FileUtils.send options['R'] ? :rm_r : :rm, [first] + rest, :force =&gt; options['f'] end end Actually, another bit of code was also added, namely version '1.0.0' This sets the version¹ String of the command. This information is used when the command is invoked with the “‹--version›” flag. This flag is automatically added, so you don’t need to add it yourself. Another flag, “‹--help›”, is also added automatically. When given, this flag’ll make Ame output usage information of the command. ¹ See http://disu.se/software/ame-1.0/api/user/Ame/Class#version-class-method To actually run the command, all you need to do is invoke Rm.process This’ll invoke the command using the command-line arguments stored in ‹ARGV›, but you can also specify other ones if you want to: Rm.process 'rm', %w[-r /tmp/*] The first argument to #process¹ is the name of the method to invoke, which defaults to ‹File.basename($0)›, and the second argument is an Array of Strings that should be processed as command-line arguments passed to the command. ¹ See http://disu.se/software/ame-1.0/api/user/Ame/Class#process-class-method If you’d store the complete ‹Rm› class defined above in a file called ‹rm› and add ‹#! /usr/bin/ruby -w› at the beginning and ‹Rm.process› at the end, you’d have a fully functional ‹rm› command (after making it executable). Let’s see it in action: % rm --help Usage: rm [OPTIONS]... FILE... Remove directory entries Arguments: FILE... File to remove Options: -R Remove file hierarchies -f Do not prompt for confirmation --help Display help for this method -i Prompt for confirmation -r Equivalent to -R --version Display version information % rm --version rm 1.0.0 Some commands are more complex than ‹rm›. For example, ‹git›¹ has a rather complex command-line interface. We won’t mimic it all here, but let’s introduce the rest of the Ame API using a fake ‹git› clone as an example. ¹ See http://git-scm.com/docs/ ‹Git› uses sub-commands to achieve most things. Implementing sub-commands with Ame is done using a “dispatch”. We’ll discuss dispatches in more detail later, but suffice it to say that a dispatch delegates processing to a child class that’ll handle the sub-command in question. We begin by defining our main ‹git› command using a class called ‹Git› under the ‹Git::CLI› namespace: module Git end class Git::CLI &lt; Ame::Root version '1.0.0' class Git &lt; Ame::Class description 'The stupid content tracker' def initialize; end We’re setting things up to use the ‹Git› class as a dispatch in the ‹Git::CLI› class. The description on the ‹initialize› method will be used as a description of the ‹git› dispatch command itself. Next, let’s add the ‹format-patch›¹ sub-command: description 'Prepare patches for e-mail submission' flag ?n, 'numbered', false, 'Name output in [PATCH n/m] format' flag ?N, 'no-numbered', nil, 'Name output in [PATCH] format' do |options| options['numbered'] = false end toggle ?s, 'signoff', false, 'Add Signed-off-by: line to the commit message' switch '', 'thread', 'STYLE', nil, Ame::Types::Enumeration[:shallow, :deep], 'Controls addition of In-Reply-To and References headers' flag '', 'no-thread', nil, 'Disables addition of In-Reply-To and Reference headers' do |options, _| options.delete 'thread' end option '', 'start-number', 'N', 1, 'Start numbering the patches at N instead of 1' multioption '', 'to', 'ADDRESS', String, 'Add a To: header to the email headers' optional 'SINCE', 'N/A', 'Generate patches for commits after SINCE' def format_patch(since = '', options = {}) p since, options end ¹ See http://git-scm.com/docs/git-format-patch/ We’re using quite a few new Ame commands here. Let’s look at each in turn: toggle ?s, 'signoff', false, 'Add Signed-off-by: line to the commit message' A “toggle”¹ is a flag that also has an inverse. Beyond the flags ‘s’ and “signoff”, the toggle also defines “no-signoff”, which will set “signoff” to false. This is useful if you want to support configuration files that set “signoff”’s default to true, but still allow it to be overridden on the command line. ¹ See http://disu.se/software/ame-1.0/api/user/Ame/Class#toggle-class-method When using the short form of a toggle (and flag and switch), multiple ones may be juxtaposed after the initial one. For example, “‹-sn›” is equivalent to “‹-s -n›” to “git format-patch›”. switch '', 'thread', 'STYLE', nil, Ame::Types::Enumeration[:shallow, :deep], 'Controls addition of In-Reply-To and References headers' A “switch”¹ is an option that takes an optional argument. This allows you to have separate defaults for when the switch isn’t present on the command line and for when it’s given without an argument. The third argument to a switch is the name of the argument. We’re also introducing a new concept here in ‹Ame::Types::Enumeration›. An enumeration² allows you to limit the allowed input to a set of Symbols. An enumeration also has a default value in the first item to its constructor (which is aliased as ‹.[]›). In this case, the “thread” switch defaults to nil, but, when given, will default to ‹:shallow› if no argument is given. If an argument is given it must be either “shallow” or “deep”. A switch isn’t required to take an enumeration as its argument default and can take any kind of default value for its argument that Ame knows how to handle. We’ll look at this in more detail later, but know that the type of the default value will be used to inform Ame how to parse a command-line argument into a Ruby value. An argument to a switch must be given, in this case, as “‹--thread=deep›” on the command line. ¹ See http://disu.se/software/ame-1.0/api/user/Ame/Class#switch-class-method ² See http://disu.se/software/ame-1.0/api/user/Ame/Types/Enumeration/ option '', 'start-number', 'N', 1, 'Start numbering the patches at N instead of 1' An “option”¹ is an option that takes an argument. The argument must always be present and may be given, in this case, as “‹--start-number=2›” or “‹--start-number 2›” on the command line. For a short-form option, anything that follows the option is seen as an argument, so assuming that “start-number” also had a short name of ‘S’, “‹-S2›” would be equivalent to “‹-S 2›”, which would be equivalent to “‹--start-number 2›”. Note that “‹-snS2›” would still work as expected. ¹ See http://disu.se/software/ame-1.0/api/user/Ame/Class#option-class-method multioption '', 'to', 'ADDRESS', String, 'Add a To: header to the email headers' A “multioption”¹ is an option that takes an argument and may be repeated any number of times. Each argument will be added to an Array stored in the Hash that maps option names to their values. Instead of taking a default argument, it takes a type for the argument (String, in this case). Again, types are used to inform Ame how to parse command-line arguments into Ruby values. ¹ See http://disu.se/software/ame-1.0/api/user/Ame/Class#multioption-class-method optional 'SINCE', 'N/A', 'Generate patches for commits after SINCE' An “optional”¹ argument is an argument that isn’t required. If it’s not present on the command line it’ll get its default value (the String ‹'N/A'›, in this case). ¹ See http://disu.se/software/ame-1.0/api/user/Ame/Class#optional-class-method We’ve now covered all kinds of options and one new kind of argument. There are three more types of argument (one that we’ve already seen and two new) that we’ll look into now: “argument”, “splat”, and “splus”. description 'Annotate file lines with commit information' argument 'FILE', String, 'File to annotate' def annotate(file) p file end An “argument”¹ is an argument that’s required. If it’s not present on the command line, an error will be raised (and by default reported to the terminal). As it’s required, it doesn’t take a default, but rather a type. ¹ See http://disu.se/software/ame-1.0/api/user/Ame/Class#argument-class-method description 'Add file contents to the index' splat 'PATHSPEC', String, 'Files to add content from' def add(paths) p paths end A “splat”¹ is an argument that’s not required, but may be given any number of times. The type of a splat is the type of one argument and the type of a splat as a whole is an Array of values of that type. ¹ See http://disu.se/software/ame-1.0/api/user/Ame/Class#splat-class-method description 'Display gitattributes information' splus 'PATHNAME', String, 'Files to list attributes of' def check_attr(paths) p paths end A “splus”¹ is an argument that’s required, but may also be given any number of times. The type of a splus is the type of one argument and the type of a splus as a whole is an Array of values of that type. ¹ See http://disu.se/software/ame-1.0/api/user/Ame/Class#splus-class-method Now that we’ve seen all kinds of options and arguments, let’s look on an additional tool at our disposal, the dispatch¹. class Remote &lt; Ame::Class description 'Manage set of remote repositories' def initialize; end description 'Shows a list of existing remotes' flag 'v', 'verbose', false, 'Show remote URL after name' def list(options = {}) p options end description 'Adds a remote named NAME for the repository at URL' argument 'name', String, 'Name of the remote to add' argument 'url', String, 'URL to the repository of the remote to add' def add(name, url) p name, url end end ¹ See http://disu.se/software/ame-1.0/api/user/Ame/Class#dispatch-class-method Here we’re defining a child class to Git::CLI::Git called “Remote” that doesn’t introduce anything new. Then we set up the dispatch: dispatch Remote, :default =&gt; 'list' This adds a method called “remote” to Git::CLI::Git that will dispatch processing of the command line to an instance of the Remote class when “‹git remote›” is seen on the command line. The “remote” method expects an argument that’ll be used to decide what sub-command to execute. Here we’ve specified that in the absence of such an argument, the “list” method should be invoked. We add the same kind of dispatch to Git under Git::CLI: dispatch Git and then we’re done. Here’s all the previous code in its entirety: module Git end class Git::CLI &lt; Ame::Root version '1.0.0' class Git &lt; Ame::Class description 'The stupid content tracker' def initialize; end description 'Prepare patches for e-mail submission' flag ?n, 'numbered', false, 'Name output in [PATCH n/m] format' flag ?N, 'no-numbered', nil, 'Name output in [PATCH] format' do |options| options['numbered'] = false end toggle ?s, 'signoff', false, 'Add Signed-off-by: line to the commit message' switch '', 'thread', 'STYLE', nil, Ame::Types::Enumeration[:shallow, :deep], 'Controls addition of In-Reply-To and References headers' flag '', 'no-thread', nil, 'Disables addition of In-Reply-To and Reference headers' do |options, _| options.delete 'thread' end option '', 'start-number', 'N', 1, 'Start numbering the patches at N instead of 1' multioption '', 'to', 'ADDRESS', String, 'Add a To: header to the email headers' optional 'SINCE', 'N/A', 'Generate patches for commits after SINCE' def format_patch(since = '', options = {}) p since, options end description 'Annotate file lines with commit information' argument 'FILE', String, 'File to annotate' def annotate(file) p file end description 'Add file contents to the index' splat 'PATHSPEC', String, 'Files to add content from' def add(paths) p paths end description 'Display gitattributes information' splus 'PATHNAME', String, 'Files to list attributes of' def check_attr(paths) p paths end class Remote &lt; Ame::Class description 'Manage set of remote repositories' def initialize; end description 'Shows a list of existing remotes' flag 'v', 'verbose', false, 'Show remote URL after name' def list(options = {}) p options end description 'Adds a remote named NAME for the repository at URL' argument 'name', String, 'Name of the remote to add' argument 'url', String, 'URL to the repository of the remote to add' def add(name, url) p name, url end end dispatch Remote, :default =&gt; 'list' end dispatch Git end If we put this code in a file called “git” and add ‹#! /usr/bin/ruby -w› at the beginning and ‹Git::CLI.process› at the end, you’ll have a very incomplete git command-line interface on your hands. Let’s look at what some of its ‹--help› output looks like: % git --help Usage: git [OPTIONS]... METHOD [ARGUMENTS]... The stupid content tracker Arguments: METHOD Method to run [ARGUMENTS]... Arguments to pass to METHOD Options: --help Display help for this method --version Display version information Methods: add Add file contents to the index annotate Annotate file lines with commit information check-attr Display gitattributes information format-patch Prepare patches for e-mail submission remote Manage set of remote repositories % git format-patch --help Usage: git format-patch [OPTIONS]...

RatatuiRuby bundles all of it. require "ratatui_ruby/test_helper" class TestColorPicker < Minitest::Test include RatatuiRuby::TestHelper def test_swatch_widget with_test_terminal(10, 3) do RatatuiRuby.draw do |frame| frame.render_widget(Swatch.new(:red), frame.area) end assert_cell_style 2, 1, char: "█", bg: :red end end end ==== What's inside: - <b>Headless terminal</b> — No real TTY needed - <b>Snapshots</b> — Plain text and rich (ANSI colors) - <b>Event injection</b> — Keys, mouse, paste, resize - <b>Style assertions</b> — Color, bold, underline at any cell - <b>Test doubles</b> — Mock frames and stub rects - <b>UPDATE_SNAPSHOTS=1</b> — Regenerate baselines in one command --- ==== Inline Menu Example require "ratatui_ruby" # This example renders an inline menu. Arrow keys select, enter confirms. # The menu appears in-place, preserving scrollback. When the user chooses, # the TUI closes and the script continues with the selected value. class RadioMenu CHOICES = ["Production", "Staging", "Development"] # ASCII strings are universally supported. PREFIXES = { active: "●", inactive: "○" } # Some terminals may not support Unicode. CONTROLS = "↑/↓: Select | Enter: Choose | Ctrl+C: Cancel" # Let users know what keys you handle. TITLES = ["Select Environment", # The default title position is top left. { content: CONTROLS, # Multiple titles can save space. position: :bottom, # Titles go on the top or bottom, alignment: :right }] # aligned left, right, or center def call # This method blocks until a choice is made. RatatuiRuby.run(viewport: :inline, height: 5) do |tui| # RatauiRuby.run manages the terminal. @tui = tui # The TUI instance is safe to store. show_menu until chosen? # You can use any loop keyword you like. end # `run` won't return until your block does, RadioMenu::CHOICES[@choice] # so you can use it synchronously. end # Classes like RadioMenu are convenient for private # CLI authors to offer "rich moments." def show_menu = @tui.draw do |frame| # RatatuiRuby gives you low-level access. widget = @tui.paragraph( # But the TUI facade makes it easy to use. text: menu_items, # Text can be spans, lines, or paragraphs. block: @tui.block(borders: :all, titles: TITLES) # Blocks give you boxes and titles, and hold ) # one or more widgets. We only use one here, frame.render_widget(widget, frame.area) # but "area" lets you compose sub-views. end def chosen? # You are responsible for handling input. interaction = @tui.poll_event # Every frame, you receive an event object: return choose if interaction.enter? # Key, Mouse, Resize, Paste, FocusGained, # FocusLost, or None objects. They come with move_by(-1) if interaction.up? # predicates, support pattern matching, and move_by(1) if interaction.down? # can be inspected for properties directly. quit! if interaction.ctrl_c? # Your application must handle every input, false # even interrupts and other exit patterns. end def choose # Here, the loop is about to exit, and the prepare_next_line # block will return. The inline viewport @choice # will be torn down and the terminal will end # be restored, but you are responsible for # positioning the cursor. def prepare_next_line # To ensure the next output is on a new area = @tui.viewport_area # line, query the viewport area and move RatatuiRuby.cursor_position = [0, area.y + area.height] # the cursor to the start of the last line. puts # Then print a newline. end def quit! # All of your familiar Ruby control flow prepare_next_line # keywords work as expected, so we can exit 0 # use them to leave the TUI. end def move_by(line_count) # You are in full control of your UX, so @choice = (@choice + line_count) % CHOICES.size # you can implement any logic you need: end # Would you "wrap around" here, or not? # def menu_items = CHOICES.map.with_index do |choice, i| # Notably, RatatuiRuby has no concept of "\#{prefix_for(i)} \#{choice}" # "menus" or "radio buttons". You are in end # full control, but it also means you must def prefix_for(choice_index) # implement the logic yourself. For larger return PREFIXES[:active] if choice_index == @choice # applications, consider using Rooibos, PREFIXES[:inactive] # an MVU framework built with RatatuiRuby. end # Or, use the upcoming ratatui-ruby-kit, # our object-oriented component library. def initialize = @choice = 0 # However, those are both optional, and end # designed for full-screen Terminal UIs. # RatatuiRuby will always give you the most choice = RadioMenu.new.call # control, and is enough for "rich CLI puts "You chose \#{choice}!" # moments" like this one. --- === Full App Solutions RatatuiRuby renders. For complex applications, add a framework that manages state and composition. ==== Rooibos[https://www.rooibos.run] (Framework) Model-View-Update architecture. Inspired by Elm, Bubble Tea, and React + Redux. Your UI is a pure function of state. - Functional programming with MVU - Commands work off the main thread - Messages, not callbacks, drive updates ==== {Kit}[https://sr.ht/~kerrick/ratatui_ruby/#chapter-3-the-object-path--kit] (Coming Soon) Component-based architecture. Encapsulate state, input handling, and rendering in reusable pieces. - OOP with stateful components - Separate UI state from domain logic - Built-in focus management & click handling Both use the same widget library and rendering engine. Pick the paradigm that fits your brain. --- === Why RatatuiRuby? Ruby deserves world-class terminal user interfaces. TUI developers deserve a world-class language. RatatuiRuby wraps Rust's Ratatui via native extension. The Rust library handles rendering. Your Ruby code handles design. >>> "Text UIs are seeing a renaissance with many new TUI libraries popping up. The Ratatui bindings have proven to be full featured and stable." — {Mike Perham}[https://www.mikeperham.com/], creator of Sidekiq[https://sidekiq.org/] and Faktory[https://contribsys.com/faktory/] ==== Why Rust? Why Ruby? Rust excels at low-level rendering. Ruby excels at expressing domain logic and UI. RatatuiRuby puts each language where it performs best. ==== Versus CharmRuby CharmRuby[https://charm-ruby.dev/] wraps Charm's Go libraries. Both projects give Ruby developers TUI options. [Integration] CharmRuby: Two runtimes, one process. RatatuiRuby: Native extension in Rust. [Runtime] CharmRuby: Go + Ruby (competing). RatatuiRuby: Ruby (Rust has no runtime). [Memory] CharmRuby: Two uncoordinated GCs. RatatuiRuby: One Garbage Collector. [Style] CharmRuby: The Elm Architecture (TEA). RatatuiRuby: TEA, OOP, or Imperative. --- === Links [Get Started] {Quickstart}[https://www.ratatui-ruby.dev/docs/v0.10/doc/getting_started/quickstart_md.html], {Examples}[https://www.ratatui-ruby.dev/docs/v0.10/examples/app_cli_rich_moments/README_md.html], {API Reference}[https://www.ratatui-ruby.dev/docs/v0.10/], {Guides}[https://www.ratatui-ruby.dev/docs/v0.10/doc/index_md.html] [Ecosystem] Rooibos[https://www.rooibos.run], {Kit}[https://sr.ht/~kerrick/ratatui_ruby/#chapter-3-the-object-path--kit] (Planned), {Framework}[https://sr.ht/~kerrick/ratatui_ruby/#chapter-5-the-framework] (Planned), {UI Widgets}[https://sr.ht/~kerrick/ratatui_ruby/#chapter-6-licensing] (Planned) [Community] {Forum}[https://forum.setdef.com/c/ratatui-ruby/6], {Announcements}[https://forum.setdef.com/tags/c/ratatui-ruby/6/announcement], {Discussion}[https://forum.setdef.com/tags/c/ratatui-ruby/6/discussion], {Bug Tracker}[https://forum.setdef.com/tags/c/ratatui-ruby/6/bug] [Contribute] {Contributing Guide}[https://man.sr.ht/~kerrick/ratatui_ruby/contributing.md], {Code of Conduct}[https://man.sr.ht/~kerrick/ratatui_ruby/code_of_conduct.md], {Project History}[https://man.sr.ht/~kerrick/ratatui_ruby/history/index.md], {Pull Requests}[https://forum.setdef.com/tags/c/ratatui-ruby/6/patch] --- [Website] https://www.ratatui-ruby.dev [Source] https://github.com/setdef/RatatuiRuby [RubyGems] https://rubygems.org/gems/ratatui_ruby [Upstream] https://ratatui.rs [Build Status] https://builds.sr.ht/~kerrick/ratatui_ruby © 2026 Kerrick Long · Library: LGPL-3.0-or-later · Website: CC-BY-NC-ND-4.0 · Snippets: MIT-0
