Term Archive
A curated shelf of terminal projects and TUIs — games, tools, and the craft of the command line
// contents (3)
Term Archive is a satellite corner of Save Latin: a personal shelf of terminal interfaces worth stopping for — TUIs, text-mode games, and tools that treat the command line as a canvas. Not a comprehensive index; a short list of projects that made me lean in while wandering back into the stack after years of living mostly in GUI land.
The design is its own thing (Obsidian Terminal — electric blue on charcoal, fastfetch-style status pages, gallery cards with screenshots). The main hub stays SL-term green-and-amber; this lives at /term-archive with its own layout and light/dark toggle.
Why it exists
Claude Code CLI reminded me how much I like working inside the machine. I started on Linux bible books and sysadmin nights; spent decades in the Microsoft ecosystem; now I'm collecting the most interesting terminal work I find — with notes on why TUI craft and visual design belong in the same conversation.
Read the origin story: Hello, World.
Status
Early and intentionally small. One gallery entry today (Dwarf Fortress). The list grows as I find things worth keeping.
