The ftxui::component module defines the logic that produces interactive components that respond to user events (keyboard, mouse, etc.).

The Example section provides a collection of examples.

A ftxui::ScreenInteractive defines a main loop that renders a component.

A ftxui::Component is a shared pointer to a ftxui::ComponentBase. The latter defines:

ftxui::ComponentBase::Render(): How to render the interface.
ftxui::ComponentBase::OnEvent(): How to react to events.
ftxui::ComponentBase::Add(): Construct a parent/child relationship between two components. The tree of component is used to define how to navigate using the keyboard.

ftxui::Element are used to render a single frame.

ftxui::Component are used to render dynamic user interface, producing multiple frame, and updating its state on events.
