Yes it was fun making it thanks to all the asciimatics effects! I was also able to extend an internal asciimatics class to add a feature for pre-recorded code demos, which lets you _play_ code on a slide, like someone is typing it :D
As an app dev newb, I was searching recently for something vaguely TUI toolkit-ish, with standard pluggable elements. I know of ncurses, but it's quite low-level. I was surprised to find virtually nothing (though my search-fu may have been weak).
What resources --- libraries, documentation, books --- for TUI development would folks recommend?
