ZigZag - A TUI framework for Zig

Showcase

Hey everyone! I just released v0.1.0 of ZigZag, a TUI framework inspired by Go’s Bubble Tea and Lipgloss.

I built this because I wanted a nice way to build terminal UIs in Zig without reaching for C libraries or bindings.

Features:

  • Elm-inspired architecture (Model-View-Update)

  • Flexbox-like layouts

  • Styling (colors, borders, padding, etc.)

  • Input handling

Still early days, feedback and contributions welcome!

Are you going to update the project or its just as it is right now? Update I mean by updating to the newest zig 0.16.0 in the future.

Yep, actively maintained! I’ll keep it updated with new Zig releases.
