FAQPage Schema
How do I display large datasets in a terminal user interface with limited vertical space?

A scrollable TUI overlay widget manages large datasets within limited vertical space by implementing virtual scrolling, allowing seamless navigation through content that exceeds the viewport.

How does virtual scrolling work in a terminal overlay component?

Virtual scrolling in a terminal overlay renders only the visible portion of large datasets, supporting up/down arrow navigation to move through content efficiently without overwhelming the limited vertical space.

Can I use this scrollable TUI overlay with the @mariozechner/pi-tui library?

Yes, this scrollable TUI overlay requires TypeScript and the @mariozechner/pi-tui library, implementing the TUI Component interface to integrate with existing terminal interfaces built on that framework.

What is the best way to build a terminal overlay board for datasets exceeding 20 lines?

A scrollable TUI overlay widget provides virtual scrolling for overlay boards with up to 20 lines of vertical space, enabling up/down navigation through datasets that exceed those viewport limits.

Are there limitations when using a terminal overlay for large dataset navigation?

The scrollable TUI overlay is designed for overlay boards with up to 20 lines of vertical space and requires the @mariozechner/pi-tui library and TypeScript, limiting its use to that specific environment.
