Hackathon 9

The goal was to explore OpenTUI, a framework for building interactive graphical interfaces within the terminal, and experiment with creating applications that go beyond traditional CLI functionality.

What was done

We developed several small, complete projects using OpenTUI, including a clicker game, a visual interface for TAC, a 3D Solar System visualiser, a 1v1 shooter, Minesweeper and a multimedia album browser.

What was learnt

We learnt how to use OpenTUI alongside technologies such as React and Three.js, exploring how terminal applications can support interactive graphics, games, 3D visualisations and multimedia experiences.
