    After two years of development (and endless bikeshedding), we’ve finally pushed Base UI v1 out the door. Base UI is an unstyled UI library for building accessible component libraries and user interfaces with React. 35 accessible, configurable, composable, customizable components with a focus on a11y. Base UI is already in production at startups like Paper, Zed, and Unsplash, and being trialled by larger companies like GitHub and Vercel. There is a growing community of open-source libs built on top of it, such as Coss UI, Basecn, 9UI, and Pure UI. Since Base UI doesn’t bundle any styles, it…

    I’ve been working on gotui, a modern fork of the unmaintained termui, rebuilt on top of tcell for TrueColor, mouse support, and proper resize handling. It keeps the simple termui-style API, but adds a bunch of new widgets (charts, gauges, world map, etc.), nicer visuals (collapsed borders, rounded corners), and input components for building real dashboards and tools. Under the hood the renderer’s been reworked for much better performance, and I’d love feedback on what’s missing for you to use it in production.
