I'm not quite understanding your project. What is the use case? Is this so I can package up an existing terminal app as a dedicated desktop app?

If so that actually sounds really cool. I'd like a dedicated lazygit app in my tray at all times.

Yes, that's it. It came about after writing a small TUI for a friend to back up their Vimeo library. They liked the simplicity and speed but not having to use the shell. Didn't want to install Ghostty either.

So here we are

My brother has built a game using python on the CLI and I've been trying to find a way to package it. Your project seems very promising for my use case.

Project mentions Windows compiles but isn't tested. Do you have a gut check on what issues there might be?

I think it may actually work. It's just that I only have a VM to test it on, and it does not support OpenGL. I got it to compile and run, but it crashed on that VM limitation.

Feel free to open issues in the repo, I'll find a way to get a Windows machine if there's interest.

This is kinda cool. Thanks for sharing.
