I've been working on a TUI to suit my terminal IDE workflow after I noticed the most promising alternative stopped being maintained and had too many bugs.

The tool is implemented in Rust using the Ratatui library and focuses on being ergonomic, fast and provide case-aware replacement.

The main feature I wanted to have is immediate feedback for the search query, which is also why I didn't stick with tools like fastmod and repgrep. As much as I hate VS Code now, I really enjoyed the search/replace experience with it and that's what I tried to emulate in swpui.

Looking forward to your feedback!

What's there to hate about VSCode?
