Crate ratatui_core

Source
Expand description

ratatui-core is the core library of the ratatui project, providing the essential building blocks for creating rich terminal user interfaces in Rust.

§Why ratatui-core?

The ratatui-core crate is split from the main ratatui crate to offer better stability for widget library authors. Widget libraries should generally depend on ratatui-core, benefiting from a stable API and reducing the need for frequent updates.

Applications, on the other hand, should depend on the main ratatui crate, which includes built-in widgets and additional features.

§Installation

Add ratatui-core to your Cargo.toml:

cargo add ratatui-core

§Features

  • anstyle — enables conversions to / from colors, modifiers, and styles in the [‘anstyle’] crate
  • palette — enables conversions from colors in the palette crate to Color.
  • underline-color — enables the backend code that sets the underline color. Underline color is only supported by the Crossterm backend, and is not supported on Windows 7.
  • scrolling-regions — Use terminal scrolling regions to make some operations less prone to flickering. (i.e. Terminal::insert_before).
  • serde — enables serialization and deserialization of style and color types using the serde crate. This is useful if you want to save themes to a file.
