I don't know how I feel about writing CLIs in JS. Just seems a little bit janky to me, and I don't know why. I wonder if there's any push to have something JSXish in Go, even if it requires a pre-compiler to achieve the syntax, just for CLI apps like this. Then again, maybe I'd just rather stick with something like Nim where you can just have a first-class DSL through the macro system.
I can feel snarkiness in this response. I don't like it.

The primitives are good enough to build anything you want. Right now I'm trying to figure out how to make better libs and tooling for creators (mainly myself) so I can crank out lots of examples apps that showcase the power of TUIs where you don't need a dedicated executable for each one.
