not a fan of the new name. but naming is hard. and it seems anthropic forced their hand into making a snappy (ha) decision here.

The author states "Virality is rare and nearly impossible to predict" and yet one of his products aims to automate the creation of "viral LinkedIn posts"! Much irony.

How did I forget textual, thank you! It might be a good solution as I can imagine Claude Sonnet vibe coding interesting UIs with it...

Am also investigating xterm.js currently.

Anything that uses too much CSS (eg tries to 'construct' layouts with it rather than just rending text) seems a little fragile.

Ask HN: Best Way to Build MS-DOS-Style Text UI in the Browser?

3stripe — Sun, 16 Mar 2025 12:52:05 +0000

I'm working on a web app that mimics the look and feel of an old MS-DOS program—think Turbo Pascal IDE or Norton Commander.

The goal* is a keyboard-only, text-based UI running inside a browser, with windowed UI elements and ASCII graphics.

I've looked into Xterm.js, React TUI libraries, and vanilla JS canvas solutions, but I'd love input from those who've built something similar.

Are there any existing projects or libraries I should check out?

Would appreciate any insights, cheers!

(*And the ultimate end goal is to have an LLM create interfaces on the fly from user prompts)

First rule of writing definitions: use everyday English.

"It felt like being in a busy pub where I could chat to loads of different people"

This is one of the best descriptions of how social media feels (when it's at its best, anyway) that I've seen

Perhaps RSS makes a comeback in some shape or form, as a way for LLMs/agents to fetch the latest content from sites?

There’s definitely something to be said for “hardly any CSS” websites that are brutally functional.

For example was looking at http://www.steephill.tv/ yesterday for cycling news (recently shut down sadly)

For such a seminal web technology, I thought the 'thanks/goodbye' page was a huge missed opportunity from Flash... there's so much goodwill and nostalgia for the old days and they "celebrate" it with urm... https://get3.adobe.com/flashplayer/thankyou/
