Termimad isn’t a full-fledged TUI framework. It can be used to build TUIs (I made broot, bacon, safecloset, etc. with it), but if you want to quickly build a TUI and compose UI components and widgets, you’ll probably find it much easier to choose a real TUI framework (e.g. ratatui).

Termimad isn’t a generic Markdown viewer either. Markdown is mainly used as a language for the developer to describe parts of the interface—especially rich text—inside a TUI. People interested in rendering arbitrary Markdown files will find that it lacks features such as image rendering.

Some animals, mainly sharks which can't stop or they would be asphyxied, deal with that by having kind of 2 brains which are never both sleeping at the same time.

When maintaining related code, for example a Display implementation, or routing to some behaviors, it's sometimes much easier when it's alpha sorted: you immediately see what's implemented or not.

That's when you can hit the codesort shortcut to have this specific list (enum variants, match arms, etc.) sorted.

Those bags of data are usually called "documents". And a lot of systems need a way to store them along relational data.

If you're just storing and retrieving those documents, without any query, you don't need JSONB, a simple blob is enough.

If you sometimes need to do some queries, especially free queries (you want all component whose configuration has some property), then JSONB is suitable as it lets you do the filtering in the database.

A problem for such repositories like the Debian one is that it can only contain vetted versions of libraries. Many Rust libraries are still 0.x and have changing API and frequent updates, which makes it hard to vet all dependencies, especially when an update implies updates of the dependents.

I normalize strings in searches not because of bad intents but because for all user related purposes "Comunicações" and "Comunicações" are the same, their different encodings being more of an accident.

This is convenient when you don't want to browse or search, just want what tree does but without scrolling.

I didn't do it in my deserializer because of the big value you have in Rust in being compatible with serde and that wouldn't be. But this would be interesting, probably as an side library.
