Sometimes I also like to tinker with game programming. That said, for long-standing applications running in a headless environment, there seemed to be a potential, however small, for this to be a useful library with which to have some experience.
Generally speaking, if you’re going to build a terminal interface, using Java isn’t the first choice if only because of startup performance and initial resident memory use. I thought this was an interesting library, if a little hard to justify in normal use-cases. Background #Ī couple of years ago, I ran across Lanterna, which is a Curses-style library, built to run portably on the JVM. To make a Tetris clone for the terminal using Kotlin… on the JVM. Sometimes it’s fun to try a new challenge, and sometimes it is fun to mix a few challenges together.
