Painting app in your terminal.

Screenshot from 2025-08-25 23-31-50

Any modern linux terminal with mouse support should work. I'm using crossterm so windows will probably work, but it's not tested.

Paint using the mouse Press ctrl-c or q to quit Press any other key to show/hide the color and tool menu Any other key will hide/show the tools and palette

Building

Install any modern version of rust and run cargo run

Of course for best experience you can always use the provided nix develop shell :)
