Does anyone know of a similar library for node which does this? I've decided to make my next app TUI first, and then only add in a GUI much later, but I haven't seen anything that looks nearly as good as rich.

There's `blessed` [0], a plain JS lib similar to `ncurses`. There's also `react-blessed` [1], which is a React renderer that targets `blessed` as the display layer, and `ink` [2], which is also a text-based React renderer but using its own display layer.
