### Website & documentation

https://zamotany.github.io/react-slate/

### Features

* Render React apps to:
  * terminal with [`render`](api/render)
  * terminal in fullscreen mode with [`renderFullscreen`](api/render-fullscreen)
  * a string with [`renderToString`](api/render-to-string)
  * a JSON tree [`renderToJson`](api/render-to-json)
* Use `for await` to continuously render your app using [`renderToString`](api/render-to-string) or [`renderToJson`](api/render-to-json).
* Render your app to alternative screen buffer and go back to the previous content upon exit with [`renderFullscreen`](api/render-fullscreen).
* Log messages to main screen buffer with `console` when exiting when in fullscreen mode ([`renderFullscreen`](api/render-fullscreen)).
* Build layouts with FlexBox (https://github.com/vislyhq/stretch).
* Disable colors with [`NO_COLOR`](https://no-color.org/) environment variable.
* Use standard ANSI colors, RBG, Hex and CSS keywords to style your app.
* Use built-in [`<Progress />`](components/progress) and [`<Spinner />`](components/spinner) components.
* Get layout information using [`onLayout`](handlers/on-layout) prop.
* Handle clicks using [`onClick`](handlers/on-click) prop.
* Detect mouse wheel events using [`onWheel`](handlers/on-wheel) prop.
* Support for absolute positioning and depth (`zIndex`).
* Built with TypeScript.

Please check out [Roadmap](https://github.com/zamotany/react-slate/issues/99) for in-progress and planned features.

### Limitations

* Web components are not compatible.
* Strings must be wrapped in a `<Text>` component.

## Installation

```bash
yarn add react @react-slate/core

import React from 'react';
import { render, View, Text } from '@react-slate/core';

      <Text color="green" bold>Hello world!</Text>
    </View>
