Project: Termite is a tool that generates terminal user interfaces (TUIs) from simple text prompts.
Introduction to the Code:
Termite uses a large language model (LLM) to generate and execute Python scripts that create TUIs. By default, it utilizes the urwid library but can also work with rich, curses, or textual.
Features:
- Rapid prototyping of terminal applications.
- Supports multiple Python TUI libraries.
- Customizable prompts for various tasks.
Capabilities:
- Generates functional TUIs based on user prompts.
- Executes Python scripts to display the UI in the terminal.
Limitations:
- Experimental; may produce unexpected results.
- Running AI-generated code carries inherent risks.
Inputs and Outputs:
- Input: Text prompt describing the desired TUI.
- Output: Executed Python script presenting the TUI in the terminal.
Simple Usage Example:
1. Install Termite:
pipx install termite-ai
2. Set API Key:
export OPENAI_API_KEY="your_openai_api_key"
3. Generate a TUI:
termite "Create a file explorer"
This command will generate and display a file explorer TUI in your terminal.
