Install FTXUI
To set up FTXUI in your project, follow the installation guide, which provides instructions for multiple build systems and package managers.
Minimal Example
Save the following code as main.cpp:
#include <ftxui/dom/elements.hpp>
#include <ftxui/screen/screen.hpp>
#include <iostream>
int main() {
using namespace ftxui;
Element document = hbox({
text("left") | border,
text("middle") | border | flex,
text("right") | border,
});
auto screen = Screen::Create(Dimension::Full(), Dimension::Fit(document));
Render(screen, document);
screen.Print();
}
Build and run it using your preferred build system.
If unsure, start with one of the methods described in the installation page.
Expected output:
┌────┐┌────────────────────────────────────┐┌─────┐
│left││middle ││right│
└────┘└────────────────────────────────────┘└─────┘
