DOM

This module defines a hierarchical set of Element. An Element manages layout and can be responsive to the terminal dimensions.

They are declared in <ftxui/dom/elements.hpp>

<details><summary>Layout</summary>

Element can be arranged together:

  • horizontally with hbox
  • vertically with vbox
  • inside a grid with gridbox
  • wrap along one direction using the flexbox.

Element can become flexible using the flex decorator.

Example using hbox, vbox and filler.
