Ok leaving it for the evening. Have a little json based file format for ascii art. Means I can make a tiny player so any CLI can play animations / images as ascii art. https://github.com/scottgal/mostlylucid.consoleimage/releases
The braille mode shown here fits a WHOLE lot of detail into a tiny space in the console!

🤡 Ah, another "revolutionary" tool for terminal enthusiasts who yearn for the privilege of debugging alpha-stage software. 🛠️ Yapi promises to transform your API testing experience... once it finally works without breaking. 🙃 Clearly, using a GUI is for those who don't enjoy the thrilling chaos of early #alpha #bugs. 🐛

FOSS Advent Calendar - Door 16: Command Your Filesystem with broot

Ever felt lost in a sea of files? Meet broot, the terminal file manager that gives you an eagle's-eye view of your directories. It’s not just a replacement for ls or tree, it’s a full-blown interactive navigator that shows your files as a live, searchable tree, complete with instant previews and powerful batch operations, all without leaving your terminal.

Unlike traditional methods, broot renders an intuitive visual tree where folder sizes are immediately apparent, and you can fuzzy-search, navigate, and manage files with keyboard shortcuts. Want to find all *.tmp files? Just type the pattern and jump to them. Need to move, copy, or delete files in bulk? broot lets you do it in a few keystrokes, with a live preview to avoid mistakes. Everything is local, fast, and keyboard-driven.

Pro tip: Use broot’s :rm or :mv commands to clean up your Downloads folder in seconds, or enable the “sizes” view to instantly spot what’s hogging your disk space. With broot, you’re not just listing files, you’re commanding them.
