Fresh Launches as a New Terminal-First Text Editor (linuxiac.com)

Fresh is a newly released open-source TUI text editor written in Rust, designed to combine modern usability features with a command-line workflow. What sets it apart from similar applications is that it targets developers who want IDE-style functionality while remaining entirely inside the terminal.

The editor runs entirely in a terminal emulator and does not use graphical toolkits such as GTK or Qt. Menus, panels, split views, the file explorer, and the integrated terminal are all built using terminal features. Even so, the editor offers a structured, GUI-like experience with mouse support, a command palette, and contextual menus.

DOA.

I'm kind of interested how will it go, especially further development and their issue handling.

It doesn't do anything I need, though.

Looks good for anyone not having the learning will or capacity to go through 100 years of learning Vim or ~~IMAX~~ Emac types of 3D puzzles.
