Rust crate for artisanally crafted CLIs, TUIs, and text-based IO

I recently built and open sourced iocraft, a new Rust crate for TUIs. It allows you to build portable and beautiful looking TUIs (or even just simple printouts) using a declarative, React-like syntax. I think it hits a sweet spot that no previously existing TUI library for Rust did, and for anyone familiar with React or SwiftUI, the API should feel right at home. Take a look, give it a try, and let me what you think!
