Closed dmadisetti closed 2 years ago

dmadisetti commented 2 years ago

crossterm pros:

crossterm is now the tui-rs default
crossterm supports windows (see #48)
prettier readme doc
more recent support than termion (Aug 21st, 2022 vs Sept 27th, 2021)

termion pros:

wider usage
less work for me

I'm all for migrating to crossterm, it seems to have gained more traction than termion, it's being maintained better, has better docs and of course windows support is a huge plus if steam-tui decides to support windows.
