- New docs page (tools/tui.mdx) covering all 5 RF modes, keyboard
shortcuts, easter eggs, and splash screen with inline SVG screenshots
- Screenshot generation script using Textual headless Pilot API to
capture 8 screens in demo mode without hardware
- Fix dark mode toggle: migrate from removed App.dark to App.theme API
(Textual 7.x breaking change)
- Update social link to Gitea repo, add TUI to sidebar
New features:
- P1 green phosphor radar scope widget on Track screen with LUT-optimized rendering
- Splash screen with pre-baked ANSI half-block art from 16colo.rs/Mistigris
- Star Wars ASCII animation via telnet (ctrl+w) with IPv6 happy eyeballs and offline fallback
- Dark Side / New Hope toast notifications on theme toggle
- Kitty terminal detection with cat emoji on splash
Robustness (from Apollo code review):
- Circuit breaker in track loop after 10 consecutive errors
- Input validation for frequency, symbol rate, step size across scan/spectrum/track
- Consolidated sys.path manipulation into __init__.py
- Radar scope pre-computes dist/angle LUT per pixel on resize
Cleanup:
- Removed unused imports across lband, monitor, scan, signal_gauge
- Moved Pillow/textual-image to optional dev deps (splash uses pre-baked ANSI)
- Added 41-test pytest suite covering telnet IAC parsing, radar geometry, splash assets
Textual's ContentSwitcher expects regular Widget/Container children,
not Screen subclasses. Screen's on_mount fires for all children at
once regardless of visibility, so demo workers for all 5 modes
started simultaneously and competed for the bridge.
Container children get proper on_show/on_hide from ContentSwitcher's
visibility toggling — only the active panel's worker runs.
Separate entry point (skywalker-tui) that reuses skywalker_lib.py
unchanged. Five RF modes: spectrum, scan, monitor, lband, track —
each with threaded USB bridge workers for non-blocking I/O.
Includes --demo mode with synthetic signal generation (Gaussian
peaks, noise floor, AGC simulation) for development without hardware.
Custom widgets: spectrum bar chart, rolling waterfall, signal gauge,
sparkline history, transponder table, device status bar.
