hm, one of my projects is needing a GUI library but I'm not sure how I want to do it
have iterated over all the ones I know and none of them fulfill the requirements
the best option so far has been a SNES controller and a crappy composite video signal with some line draws etc
it's very memorable but still allowed for any graphics
like the button mash sequences were responsive and easy to get muscle memory for

that was running on a little esp32 connected to a tv but the i2c peripheral was too quirky and i couldn't get composite and audio working at the same time, so i think i'd like to run the next version on a linux box, but that calls for order of magnitude more complexity (xlib, create window, unicode, etc..)

are there any keyboard-only gui libs that let you build up muscle memory for their programs quickly without being jailed to a terminal? i just want a framebuffer and some helpers for drawing some shapes, maybe a little keybind mechanism, but in rust since the thing i wanna make needs that. vaguely like https://github.com/cntools/rawdraw in some aspects. recs?
