Terminal Ui

If you're building CLI tools with Ink or Clack prompts, this gives you 42 specific rules across rendering, input handling, and UX patterns. It's organized by priority so you know what matters most: preventing terminal flicker with single-write batching, handling keyboard input with useInput hooks, and designing prompts that don't frustrate users. The rule prefixes like render- and input- make it easy to reference specific patterns. Honestly, the critical rendering rules alone are worth having around since terminal performance issues are annoying to debug. It covers the full stack from ANSI escape sequences to component lifecycle, which is helpful when you need more than "just make it work" and want actual developer tool polish.
