TUI

When an internal tool needs an interactive interface, we default to a text user interface (TUI) instead of a web UI. TUIs are keyboard-driven, start instantly, run over SSH, and ship as a single binary with no frontend build, JavaScript dependency tree, or browser compatibility matrix. Our engineers and operators already work in the terminal, so a TUI meets them where they are. We use Bubble Tea for Go and are trialing Ratatui for Rust.
