Runtime Terminal
The renderer. Walks your component tree into ANSI lines and paints them — render modes, layered key dispatch, color-depth detection, output targets and reactive terminal size. The host platform for @sigx/runtime-core.
The @sigx/terminal umbrella re-exports this package, so most apps never install it
directly — it is to the terminal what @sigx/runtime-dom is to the web:
pnpm add @sigx/runtime-terminalWhat lives here
- Render modes — fullscreen (alternate screen), inline live regions and one-shot static rendering, plus the mount options that pick between them. See Render modes.
- Layered key dispatch — the focus model interactive components plug into. See Input & interactive components.
- Terminal capabilities — color-depth detection, output targets and the reactive terminal size the layout engine tracks.
