CPPurses is a Terminal User Interface(TUI) Library built on top of ncurses. It defines a framework of Widgets, Layouts, and Events that let you focus on user interface design, while boilerplate common to ncurses applications is handled behind the scenes. CPPurses contains a collection of common Widgets that can be pieced together to create a composite application. It is also possible to expand and build on top of existing Widgets, or to create completely new Widget types, by overriding a few virtual functions.
