What is libtickit-widgets-perl

libtickit-widgets-perl is:

This class acts as an abstract base class for on-screen widget objects. It provides the lower-level machinery required by most or all widget types.

Objects cannot be directly constructed in this class. Instead, a subclass of this class which provides a suitable implementation of the render_to_rb and other provided methods is derived. Instances in that class are then constructed.

The core Tickit distribution only contains a couple of simple widget classes. Many more widget types are available on CPAN. Almost certainly for any widget-based program you will want to at least install the Tickit::Widgets distribution, which provides many of the basic UI types of widget.

Tickit is a high-level toolkit for creating full-screen terminal-based interactive programs. It allows programs to be written in an abstracted way, working with a tree of widget objects, to represent the layout of the interface and implement its behaviours.
