Claude Code uses Ink, a react library in javascript for UI. The upswing is probably stuff like this making it super easy to write a TUI.

Ink is the Electron of text-based apps. I tried OpenCode out of curiosity, it routinely used hundreds of megabytes of memory.

I'll stick with Emacs as my TUI platform of choice, especially for tool-assisted development.

What a fascinating modern age we live in.
