I looked at the snow one and almost expected snowdrifts to start accumulating.
Like fast fashion, but for software development. One piece of software, one-time use: run, have fun, delete. No maintenance, no support, and no regret.

In the same period of 2024, there were ~700 repos on github.
I've come to the conclusion to rely more on Zellij because I can SSH into my desktop from my laptop remotely to continue my dev session exactly where I left off.
So, these days I don't even use "native" terminal tabs anymore.
Yet checking out "cargo install weathr" and is it me or rust is becoming the next nodejs? :D
But everything else is opened as needed. Especially toys like this weather thing.
EDIT - I use a 4k monitor and the window manager niri, so it's easy to fit multiple terminals on a screen
Not sure how else it would be now that I use claude code and codex so much.
Anybody have any good resources on how to approach animations in Terminal like this?
obviously not related at all, but enough to make me go "hm, this looks familiar" :)

By mapping raw, real-time data directly to an ASCII matrix, the visual form becomes a literal byproduct of the data's underlying logic. It entirely strips away the decorative bloat modern GUIs suffer from.
We enforce a similar principle when building algorithmic brand identities: impose absolute grid constraints so the generative system has no room to arbitrarily 'guess' what looks good. Elegance is subtractive.
