Textual definitely looks slick and modern.  And with a modern terminal
emulator it works quite well and is responsive.  I'd definitely consider
it for a TUI.

But on the Linux console, or on an older terminal, not so much.
Textual's really designed for smallish unicode fonts in a windowed
environment, not any kind of real, old-school text mode.  Just something
to keep in mind.  99% of terminal users are using a modern terminal
emulator these days, with full color and unicode, which is the target of
textual.

Curses-based programs don't look great on anything, but they do look
consistent on more primitive terminals.
