Build Terminal Apps in Pure Swift with TUIKit - Getting Started Guide

Swift on the server and command line is growing — but building interactive terminal apps has meant dropping down to C with ncurses or readline. Not anymore.

What is TUIKit?

• Pure Swift toolkit for terminal/CLI interfaces
• No C dependencies, no bridging headers
• Cross‑platform (macOS, Linux)

What you'll build:

• Colored terminal output
• User input prompts and selections
• Menus and navigation
• Progress indicators and spinners

Perfect for:

• Swift CLI tools that need user interaction
• Developer productivity scripts
• Internal team tooling
