tui-gradient-block

an extension to ratatui's block widget using colorgrad

Note:

• Complex gradients may have a brief delay in rendering (no more than 100 ms)

• Heavily relies on my other widget called tui-rule (https://crates.io/crates/tui-rule)

• A single block is 4 instances of the rule widget (still renders with minimal delay)

• Code before 0.1.3 will be COMPLETELY outdated

• Updating is highly recommended

Features

  • fill text

    frame.render_widget(block, frame.area());
}

with multiple titles and border gradients

multiple pre-defined misc types

pre-defined gradient themes

Some of the gradients are from colormagic
