# The terminal renaissance
 
For years, the terminal felt frozen in time. Then a wave of fast,
beautiful TUIs started showing up — and the texture of the work
started to change with them.
 
- Lazygit took the friction out of branches
- Helix proved modal editing could feel modern
- Ratatui made writing one of these tractable in an afternoon
 
> Worth asking: what does the IDE look like in five years?
 
```rust
fn main() { println!("hello, world"); }
```
 
The constraint is the point. A blank terminal asks better questions▁
