WIKI-TUI

A simple and easy to use Wikipedia Text User Interface

Note: wiki-tui is still under active development and breaking changes can occur. Please always check the release notes before upgrading

You can find the installation instructions, configuration options, more preview images, a feature overview and more on our website, builditluc.github.io/wiki-tui

What can it do?

• Browse wikipedia in a TUI. Features of the TUI include:

  • Rich search results (result previews, more information on results, continue the current search)
  • Open articles in layers (press ESC to close a layer)
  • A Table of Contents with support for jumping to the section in the article
  • Rich article view (functioning links, lists, headers)
  • Switch the language of an article

• VIM-like Keybindings:

  • Basic movement
  • Goto Top / Bottom
  • Half up / down

• It's customizable (we plan on having more features in the future):

  • Change the global and local theme of individual UI components
  • Change some of the keybindings
  • Disable features (Table of Contents, Links)
  • Customize the Table of Contents (position, title format, sizes, etc.)
  • Change wikipedias language (even on the fly)
  • Logging
