## The Backend
|
|
|
|
This backend is based on a <a class="external" href="https://github.com/david-swift/TermKit">fork of TermKit for Swift</a> which is built on top of <a class="external" href="https://invisible-island.net/ncurses/">ncurses</a>.
|
|
|
|
## The Development Environment
|
|
|
|
It is possible to develop and run TermKit applications on Linux and macOS.
|
|
The integrated terminals of GNOME Builder and VS Code are particularly helpful for quickly previewing the apps.

## Aparoksha Interoperability
|
|
|
|
You can combine this backend with the Aparoksha umbrella backend.
|
|
As it is not part of the Aparoksha framework, you have to implement shared widgets yourself.
