Welcome

Welcome to the Textual framework documentation. Built with ❤️ by Textualize.io

Textual is a Python framework for building applications that run within your terminal.

Text User Interfaces (TUIs) have a number of benefits:

Quick to develop: Really rapid app development with a modern Python API.
Low requirements: Textual apps anywhere with a Python interpreter, even single-board computers.
Cross platform: The same code will run on Linux, Windows, MacOS and more.
Remote: Fully featured UIs can run over SSH.
CLI integration: Textual apps integrate with your shell and other CLI tools.

Textual TUIs are quick and easy to build with pure Python (not to mention fun).
