Bevy Ascii Terminal

A simple ascii terminal integrated into bevy's ecs framework.

The goal of this crate is to provide a simple, straightforward, and hopefully fast method for rendering colorful ascii in bevy. It was made with "traditional roguelikes" in mind, but should serve as a simple UI tool if needed.

Code Example

use bevy::prelude::*;
use bevy_ascii_terminal::*;

fn main() {
    App::new()
        .add_plugins((DefaultPlugins, TerminalPlugins))
        .add_systems(Startup, setup)
        .run();
}

fn setup(mut commands: Commands) {
    commands.spawn((
        Terminal::new([12, 1]).with_string([0, 0], "Hello world!".fg(color::BLUE)),
        TerminalBorder::single_line(),
    ));
    commands.spawn(TerminalCamera::new());
}
