This is a demo/POC of a ratatui backend based on crossterm that can run on both web and native environments with minimal implementation differences. It requires a fork of crossterm that has certain features disabled or stubbed out when building for wasm. I hope to get these changes merged upstream.
On the web, it runs on xtermjs using xterm-js-rs. We can't spawn threads in the browser so we make use of crossterm's async input streams when running natively and wasm-bindgen-futures on the web.
To run the demos (requires wasm-pack):
cd ./examples/simple
npm install
cd www
npm install
# run wasm build
npm run start
# or run native build
cargo runcd ./examples/inline
npm install
cd www
npm install
# run wasm build
npm run start
# or run native build
cargo run
