Features

As ratatui grows and evolves, this list may change, so make sure to check the main repo if you are unsure.

Backend Selection

For most cases, the default crossterm backend is the correct choice. See Backends for more information. However, this can be changed to termion or termwiz

# Defaults to crossterm
cargo add ratatui

# For termion, unset the default crossterm feature and select the termion feature
cargo add ratatui --no-default-features --features=terminon
cargo add termion

# For termwiz, unset the default crossterm feature and select the termwiz feature
cargo add ratatui --no-default-features --features=termwiz
cargo add termwiz

All-Widgets

This feature enables some extra widgets that are not in default to save on compile time. As of v0.21, the only widget in this feature group is the calendar widget, which can be enabled with the widget-calendar feature.

cargo add ratatui --features all-widgets

Widget-Calendar

This feature enables the calendar widget, which requires the time crate.

cargo add ratatui --features widget-calendar

Serde

cargo add ratatui --features serde
