Crate tui_kit 

tui-kit — reusable TUI theme, widget frames, and layout helpers.

Built on top of ratatui. Designed to be shared across multiple terminal-UI projects that follow the same visual design language.

Modules

Module	Contents
theme	Theme struct — the full color/style palette
block	block::panel_block, block::popup_block, block::widget_title, block::focusable_block
footer	render_footer, render_footer_with_app, keybind_spans — keybind bar
tabs	tabs::tab_line — horizontal tab-bar line for block titles
popup	popup::centered_popup — centered overlay area + Clear
leader	render_leader_bar — vim-style leader key popup
mouse	mouse_hit — hit-test a click against a widget [Rect]
toast	render_toasts — stacked notification toasts
list	list::render_list — scrollable focusable list
form	render_form — multi-field input form
kv	kv::render_kv_table — two-column key/value table

Keybind bar convention

Every project should show a footer keybind bar using render_footer. The visual format is identical across all projects:

Navigate: j/k  |  Open: Enter  |  Leader: space  |  Quit: q

Keys are styled with Theme::shortcut_key (yellow), actions and separators with Theme::hint (dark gray).

Build pairs contextually based on the active UI layer (popup vs main screen):

let mut pairs: Vec<(&str, &str)> = Vec::new();
if some_popup_open {
    pairs.push(("Esc",   "close"));
    pairs.push(("Enter", "confirm"));
} else {
    pairs.push(("j/k",   "navigate"));
    pairs.push(("space", "leader"));
    pairs.push(("q",     "quit"));
}
render_footer(f, footer_area, &pairs, &theme);
