-[#881]: https://github.com/ratatui-org/ratatui/pull/881
+Previously there was a blanket implementation of Widget for WidgetRef. This has been reversed to
+instead be a blanket implementation of WidgetRef for all &W where W: Widget. Any widgets that
+previously implemented WidgetRef directly should now instead implement Widget for a reference to the
+type.

+
+Crossterm gains `ratatui::backend::crossterm::{FromCrossterm, IntoCrossterm}`
+Termwiz gains `ratatui::backend::termwiz::{FromTermwiz, IntoTermwiz}`
+
+This is necessary in order to avoid the orphan rule when implementing `From` for crossterm types
+once the crossterm types are moved to a separate crate.
+
+```diff
++ use ratatui::backend::crossterm::{FromCrossterm, IntoCrossterm};
+
+let crossterm_color = crossterm::style::Color::Black;
+- let ratatui_color = crossterm_color.into();

+- let crossterm_color = ratatui_color.into();
+- let crossterm_color = crossterm::style::Color::from(ratatui_color);

+- let crossterm_attribute = crossterm::style::types::Attribute::from(ratatui_modifier);
++ let crossterm_attribute = ratatui_modifier.into_crossterm();
+```
+
+Similar conversions for `ContentStyle` -> `Style` and `Attributes` -> `Modifier` exist for
+Crossterm and the various Termion and Termwiz types as well.

+### `Bar::label()` and `BarGroup::label()` now accepts `Into<Line<'a>>`. ([#1471])
+
+[#1471]: https://github.com/ratatui/ratatui/pull/1471
+
+Previously `Bar::label()` and `BarGroup::label()` accepted `Line<'a>`, but they now accepts `Into<Line<'a>>`.
+
+for `Bar::label()`:
+
+```diff
+- Bar::default().label("foo".into());
++ Bar::default().label("foo");
+```
+
+for `BarGroup::label()`:
+
+```diff
+- BarGroup::default().label("bar".into());
++ BarGroup::default().label("bar");
+```
+
+### `Bar::text_value` now accepts `Into<String>` ([#1471])
+
+Previously `Bar::text_value` accepted `String`, but now it accepts `Into<String>`.
+
+for `Bar::text_value()`:
+
+```diff
+- Bar::default().text_value("foobar".into());
++ Bar::default().text_value("foobar");
+```
+
+## [v0.29.0](https://github.com/ratatui/ratatui/releases/tag/v0.29.0)
+
+### `Sparkline::data` takes `IntoIterator<Item = SparklineBar>` instead of `&[u64]` and is no longer const ([#1326])
+
+[#1326]: https://github.com/ratatui/ratatui/pull/1326
+
+The `Sparkline::data` method has been modified to accept `IntoIterator<Item = SparklineBar>`
+instead of `&[u64]`.
+
+`SparklineBar` is a struct that contains an `Option<u64>` value, which represents an possible
+_absent_ value, as distinct from a `0` value. This change allows the `Sparkline` to style
+data points differently, depending on whether they are present or absent.
+
+`SparklineBar` also contains an `Option<Style>` that will be used to apply a style the bar in
+addition to any other styling applied to the `Sparkline`.
+
+Several `From` implementations have been added to `SparklineBar` to support existing callers who
+provide `&[u64]` and other types that can be converted to `SparklineBar`, such as `Option<u64>`.
+
+If you encounter any type inference issues, you may need to provide an explicit type for the data
+passed to `Sparkline::data`. For example, if you are passing a single value, you may need to use
+`into()` to convert it to form that can be used as a `SparklineBar`:
+
+```diff
+let value = 1u8;
+- Sparkline::default().data(&[value.into()]);
++ Sparkline::default().data(&[u64::from(value)]);
+```
+
+As a consequence of this change, the `data` method is no longer a `const fn`.
+
+### `Color::from_hsl` is now behind the `palette` feature and accepts `palette::Hsl` ([#1418])
+
+[#1418]: https://github.com/ratatui/ratatui/pull/1418
+
+Previously `Color::from_hsl` accepted components as individual f64 parameters. It now accepts a
+single `palette::Hsl` value and is gated behind a `palette` feature flag.
+
+```diff
+- Color::from_hsl(360.0, 100.0, 100.0)
++ Color::from_hsl(Hsl::new(360.0, 100.0, 100.0))
+```
+
+### Removed public fields from `Rect` iterators ([#1358], [#1424])
+
+[#1358]: https://github.com/ratatui/ratatui/pull/1358
+[#1424]: https://github.com/ratatui/ratatui/pull/1424
+
+The `pub` modifier has been removed from fields on the `Columns`,`Rows`, and `Positions` iterators.
+These fields were not intended to be public and should not have been accessed directly.
+
+### `Rect::area()` now returns u32 instead of u16 ([#1378])
+
+[#1378]: https://github.com/ratatui/ratatui/pull/1378
+
+This is likely to impact anything which relies on `Rect::area` maxing out at u16::MAX. It can now
+return up to u16::MAX * u16::MAX (2^32 - 2^17 + 1).
+
+### `Line` now implements `From<Cow<str>` ([#1373])
+
+[#1373]: https://github.com/ratatui/ratatui/pull/1373
+
+As this adds an extra conversion, ambiguous inferred expressions may no longer compile.
+
+```rust
+// given:
+struct Foo { ... }
+impl From<Foo> for String { ... }
+impl From<Foo> for Cow<str> { ... }
+
+let foo = Foo { ... };
+let line = Line::from(foo); // now fails due to now ambiguous inferred type
+// replace with e.g.
+let line = Line::from(String::from(foo));
+```
+
+### `Tabs::select()` now accepts `Into<Option<usize>>` ([#1413])
+
+[#1413]: https://github.com/ratatui/ratatui/pull/1413
+
+Previously `Tabs::select()` accepted `usize`, but it now accepts `Into<Option<usize>>`. This breaks
+any code already using parameter type inference:
+
+```diff
+let selected = 1u8;
+- let tabs = Tabs::new(["A", "B"]).select(selected.into())
++ let tabs = Tabs::new(["A", "B"]).select(selected as usize)
+```
+
+### `Table::highlight_style` is now `Table::row_highlight_style` ([#1331])
+
+[#1331]: https://github.com/ratatui/ratatui/pull/1331
+
+The `Table::highlight_style` is now deprecated in favor of `Table::row_highlight_style`.
+
+Also, the serialized output of the `TableState` will now include the "selected_column" field.
+Software that manually parse the serialized the output (with anything other than the `Serialize`
+implementation on `TableState`) may have to be refactored if the "selected_column" field is not
+accounted for. This does not affect users who rely on the `Deserialize`, or `Serialize`
+implementation on the state.
+
+## [v0.28.0](https://github.com/ratatui/ratatui/releases/tag/v0.28.0)
+
+### `Backend::size` returns `Size` instead of `Rect` ([#1254])
+
+[#1254]: https://github.com/ratatui/ratatui/pull/1254
+
+The `Backend::size` method returns a `Size` instead of a `Rect`.
+There is no need for the position here as it was always 0,0.
+
+### `Backend` trait migrates to `get/set_cursor_position` ([#1284])
+
+[#1284]: https://github.com/ratatui/ratatui/pull/1284
+
+If you just use the types implementing the `Backend` trait, you will see deprecation hints but
+nothing is a breaking change for you.
+
+If you implement the Backend trait yourself, you need to update the implementation and add the
+`get/set_cursor_position` method. You can remove the `get/set_cursor` methods as they are deprecated
+and a default implementation for them exists.
+
+### Ratatui now requires Crossterm 0.28.0 ([#1278])
+
+[#1278]: https://github.com/ratatui/ratatui/pull/1278
+
+Crossterm is updated to version 0.28.0, which is a semver incompatible version with the previous
+version (0.27.0). Ratatui re-exports the version of crossterm that it is compatible with under
+`ratatui::crossterm`, which can be used to avoid incompatible versions in your dependency list.
+
+### `Axis::labels()` now accepts `IntoIterator<Into<Line>>` ([#1273] and [#1283])
+
+[#1273]: https://github.com/ratatui/ratatui/pull/1173
+[#1283]: https://github.com/ratatui/ratatui/pull/1283
+
+Previously Axis::labels accepted `Vec<Span>`. Any code that uses conversion methods that infer the
+type will need to be rewritten as the compiler cannot infer the correct type.
+
+```diff
+- Axis::default().labels(vec!["a".into(), "b".into()])
++ Axis::default().labels(["a", "b"])
+```
+
+### `Layout::init_cache` no longer returns bool and takes a `NonZeroUsize` instead of `usize` ([#1245])
+
+[#1245]: https://github.com/ratatui/ratatui/pull/1245
+
+```diff
+- let is_initialized = Layout::init_cache(100);
++ Layout::init_cache(NonZeroUsize::new(100).unwrap());
+```
+
+### `ratatui::terminal` module is now private ([#1160])
+
+[#1160]: https://github.com/ratatui/ratatui/pull/1160
+
+The `terminal` module is now private and can not be used directly. The types under this module are
+exported from the root of the crate. This reduces clashes with other modules in the backends that
+are also named terminal, and confusion about module exports for newer Rust users.
+
+```diff
+- use ratatui::terminal::{CompletedFrame, Frame, Terminal, TerminalOptions, ViewPort};
++ use ratatui::{CompletedFrame, Frame, Terminal, TerminalOptions, ViewPort};
+```
+
+### `ToText` no longer has a lifetime ([#1234])
+
+[#1234]: https://github.com/ratatui/ratatui/pull/1234
+
+This change simplifies the trait and makes it easier to implement.
+
+### `Frame::size` is deprecated and renamed to `Frame::area` ([#1293])
+
+[#1293]: https://github.com/ratatui/ratatui/pull/1293
+
+`Frame::size` is renamed to `Frame::area` as it's the more correct name.
+
+## [v0.27.0](https://github.com/ratatui/ratatui/releases/tag/v0.27.0)
+
+### List no clamps the selected index to list ([#1159])
+
+[#1149]: https://github.com/ratatui/ratatui/pull/1149
+
+The `List` widget now clamps the selected index to the bounds of the list when navigating with
+`first`, `last`, `previous`, and `next`, as well as when setting the index directly with `select`.
+
+Previously selecting an index past the end of the list would show treat the list as having a
+selection which was not visible. Now the last item in the list will be selected instead.
+
+### Prelude items added / removed ([#1149])
+
+The following items have been removed from the prelude:
+
+- `style::Styled` - this trait is useful for widgets that want to
+  support the Stylize trait, but it adds complexity as widgets have two
+  `style` methods and a `set_style` method.
+- `symbols::Marker` - this item is used by code that needs to draw to
+  the `Canvas` widget, but it's not a common item that would be used by
+  most users of the library.
+- `terminal::{CompletedFrame, TerminalOptions, Viewport}` - these items
+  are rarely used by code that needs to interact with the terminal, and
+  they're generally only ever used once in any app.
+
+The following items have been added to the prelude:
+
+- `layout::{Position, Size}` - these items are used by code that needs
+  to interact with the layout system. These are newer items that were
+  added in the last few releases, which should be used more liberally.
+  This may cause conflicts for types defined elsewhere with a similar
+  name.
+
+To update your app:
+
+```diff
+// if your app uses Styled::style() or Styled::set_style():
+-use ratatui::prelude::*;
++use ratatui::{prelude::*, style::Styled};
+
+// if your app uses symbols::Marker:
+-use ratatui::prelude::*;
++use ratatui::{prelude::*, symbols::Marker}
+
+// if your app uses terminal::{CompletedFrame, TerminalOptions, Viewport}
+-use ratatui::prelude::*;
++use ratatui::{prelude::*, terminal::{CompletedFrame, TerminalOptions, Viewport}};
+
+// to disambiguate existing types named Position or Size:
+- use some_crate::{Position, Size};
+- let size: Size = ...;
+- let position: Position = ...;
++ let size: some_crate::Size = ...;
++ let position: some_crate::Position = ...;
+```
+
+### Termion is updated to 4.0 [#1106]
+
+Changelog: <https://gitlab.redox-os.org/redox-os/termion/-/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md>
+
+A change is only necessary if you were matching on all variants of the `MouseEvent` enum without a
+wildcard. In this case, you need to either handle the two new variants, `MouseLeft` and
+`MouseRight`, or add a wildcard.
+
+[#1106]: https://github.com/ratatui/ratatui/pull/1106
+
+### `Rect::inner` takes `Margin` directly instead of reference ([#1008])
+
+[#1008]: https://github.com/ratatui/ratatui/pull/1008
+
+`Margin` needs to be passed without reference now.
+
+```diff
+-let area = area.inner(&Margin {
++let area = area.inner(Margin {
+     vertical: 0,
+     horizontal: 2,
+ });
+```
+
+### `Buffer::filled` takes `Cell` directly instead of reference ([#1148])
+
+[#1148]: https://github.com/ratatui/ratatui/pull/1148
+
+`Buffer::filled` moves the `Cell` instead of taking a reference.
+
+```diff
+-Buffer::filled(area, &Cell::new("X"));
++Buffer::filled(area, Cell::new("X"));
+```
+
+### `Stylize::bg()` now accepts `Into<Color>` ([#1103])
+
+[#1103]: https://github.com/ratatui/ratatui/pull/1103
+
+Previously, `Stylize::bg()` accepted `Color` but now accepts `Into<Color>`. This allows more
+flexible types from calling scopes, though it can break some type inference in the calling scope.
+
+### Remove deprecated `List::start_corner` and `layout::Corner` ([#759])
+
+[#759]: https://github.com/ratatui/ratatui/pull/759
+
+`List::start_corner` was deprecated in v0.25. Use `List::direction` and `ListDirection` instead.
+
+```diff
+- list.start_corner(Corner::TopLeft);
+- list.start_corner(Corner::TopRight);
+// This is not an error, BottomRight rendered top to bottom previously
+- list.start_corner(Corner::BottomRight);
+// all becomes
++ list.direction(ListDirection::TopToBottom);
+```
+
+```diff
+- list.start_corner(Corner::BottomLeft);
+// becomes
++ list.direction(ListDirection::BottomToTop);
+```
+
+`layout::Corner` was removed entirely.
+
+### `LineGauge::gauge_style` is deprecated ([#565])
+
+[#565]: https://github.com/ratatui/ratatui/pull/1148
+
+`LineGauge::gauge_style` is deprecated and replaced with `LineGauge::filled_style` and `LineGauge::unfilled_style`:
+
+```diff
+let gauge = LineGauge::default()
+- .gauge_style(Style::default().fg(Color::Red).bg(Color::Blue)
++ .filled_style(Style::default().fg(Color::Green))
++ .unfilled_style(Style::default().fg(Color::White));
+```
+
+## [v0.26.0](https://github.com/ratatui/ratatui/releases/tag/v0.26.0)
+
+### `Flex::Start` is the new default flex mode for `Layout` ([#881])
+
+[#881]: https://github.com/ratatui/ratatui/pull/881
+
+Previously, constraints would stretch to fill all available space, violating constraints if
 necessary.

+# Contributor Covenant Code of Conduct
+
+## Our Pledge
+
+We as members, contributors, and leaders pledge to make participation in our
+community a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of age, body
+size, visible or invisible disability, ethnicity, sex characteristics, gender
+identity and expression, level of experience, education, socio-economic status,
+nationality, personal appearance, race, religion, or sexual identity
+and orientation.
+
+We pledge to act and interact in ways that contribute to an open, welcoming,
+diverse, inclusive, and healthy community.
+
+## Our Standards
+
+Examples of behavior that contributes to a positive environment for our
+community include:
+
+* Demonstrating empathy and kindness toward other people
+* Being respectful of differing opinions, viewpoints, and experiences
+* Giving and gracefully accepting constructive feedback
+* Accepting responsibility and apologizing to those affected by our mistakes,
+  and learning from the experience
+* Focusing on what is best not just for us as individuals, but for the
+  overall community
+
+Examples of unacceptable behavior include:
+
+* The use of sexualized language or imagery, and sexual attention or
+  advances of any kind
+* Trolling, insulting or derogatory comments, and personal or political attacks
+* Public or private harassment
+* Publishing others' private information, such as a physical or email
+  address, without their explicit permission
+* Other conduct which could reasonably be considered inappropriate in a
+  professional setting
+
+## Enforcement Responsibilities
+
+Community leaders are responsible for clarifying and enforcing our standards of
+acceptable behavior and will take appropriate and fair corrective action in
+response to any behavior that they deem inappropriate, threatening, offensive,
+or harmful.
+
+Community leaders have the right and responsibility to remove, edit, or reject
+comments, commits, code, wiki edits, issues, and other contributions that are
+not aligned to this Code of Conduct, and will communicate reasons for moderation
+decisions when appropriate.
+
+## Scope
+
+This Code of Conduct applies within all community spaces, and also applies when
+an individual is officially representing the community in public spaces.
+Examples of representing our community include using an official e-mail address,
+posting via an official social media account, or acting as an appointed
+representative at an online or offline event.
+
+## Enforcement
+
+Instances of abusive, harassing, or otherwise unacceptable behavior may be
+reported to the community leaders responsible for enforcement at
+https://forum.ratatui.rs/ or https://discord.gg/pMCEU9hNEj.
+All complaints will be reviewed and investigated promptly and fairly.
+
+All community leaders are obligated to respect the privacy and security of the
+reporter of any incident.
+
+## Enforcement Guidelines
+
+Community leaders will follow these Community Impact Guidelines in determining
+the consequences for any action they deem in violation of this Code of Conduct:
+
+### 1. Correction
+
+**Community Impact**: Use of inappropriate language or other behavior deemed
+unprofessional or unwelcome in the community.
+
+**Consequence**: A private, written warning from community leaders, providing
+clarity around the nature of the violation and an explanation of why the
+behavior was inappropriate. A public apology may be requested.
+
+### 2. Warning
+
+**Community Impact**: A violation through a single incident or series
+of actions.
+
+**Consequence**: A warning with consequences for continued behavior. No
+interaction with the people involved, including unsolicited interaction with
+those enforcing the Code of Conduct, for a specified period of time. This
+includes avoiding interactions in community spaces as well as external channels
+like social media. Violating these terms may lead to a temporary or
+permanent ban.
+
+### 3. Temporary Ban
+
+**Community Impact**: A serious violation of community standards, including
+sustained inappropriate behavior.
+
+**Consequence**: A temporary ban from any sort of interaction or public
+communication with the community for a specified period of time. No public or
+private interaction with the people involved, including unsolicited interaction
+with those enforcing the Code of Conduct, is allowed during this period.
+Violating these terms may lead to a permanent ban.
+
+### 4. Permanent Ban
+
+**Community Impact**: Demonstrating a pattern of violation of community
+standards, including sustained inappropriate behavior,  harassment of an
+individual, or aggression toward or disparagement of classes of individuals.
+
+**Consequence**: A permanent ban from any sort of public interaction within
+the community.

 Every application built with `ratatui` needs to implement the following steps:
 
 - Initialize the terminal
-- A main loop to:
-  - Handle input events
-  - Draw the UI
+- A main loop that:
+  - Draws the UI
+  - Handles input events
 - Restore the terminal state
 
-The library contains a [`prelude`] module that re-exports the most commonly used traits and
-types for convenience. Most examples in the documentation will use this instead of showing the
-full path of each type.
-
 ### Initialize and restore the terminal
 
-The [`Terminal`] type is the main entry point for any Ratatui application. It is a light
-abstraction over a choice of [`Backend`] implementations that provides functionality to draw
-each frame, clear the screen, hide the cursor, etc. It is parametrized over any type that
-implements the [`Backend`] trait which has implementations for [Crossterm], [Termion] and
-[Termwiz].
+The [`Terminal`] type is the main entry point for any Ratatui application. It is generic over a
+a choice of [`Backend`] implementations that each provide functionality to draw frames, clear
+the screen, hide the cursor, etc. There are backend implementations for [Crossterm], [Termion]
+and [Termwiz].
 
-Most applications should enter the Alternate Screen when starting and leave it when exiting and
-also enable raw mode to disable line buffering and enable reading key events. See the [`backend`
-module] and the [Backends] section of the [Ratatui Website] for more info.
+The simplest way to initialize the terminal is to use the [`init`] function which returns a
+[`DefaultTerminal`] instance with the default options, enters the Alternate Screen and Raw mode
+and sets up a panic hook that restores the terminal in case of panic. This instance can then be
+used to draw frames and interact with the terminal state. (The [`DefaultTerminal`] instance is a
+type alias for a terminal with the [`crossterm`] backend.) The [`restore`] function restores the
+terminal to its original state.
+
+```rust
+fn main() -> std::io::Result<()> {
+    let mut terminal = ratatui::init();
+    let result = run(&mut terminal);
+    ratatui::restore();
+    result
+}
+```
+
+See the [`backend` module] and the [Backends] section of the [Ratatui Website] for more info on
+the alternate screen and raw mode.
 
 ### Drawing the UI
 
-The drawing logic is delegated to a closure that takes a [`Frame`] instance as argument. The
-[`Frame`] provides the size of the area to draw to and allows the app to render any [`Widget`]
-using the provided [`render_widget`] method. See the [Widgets] section of the [Ratatui Website]
-for more info.
+Drawing the UI is done by calling the [`Terminal::draw`] method on the terminal instance. This
+method takes a closure that is called with a [`Frame`] instance. The [`Frame`] provides the size
+of the area to draw to and allows the app to render any [`Widget`] using the provided
+[`render_widget`] method. After this closure returns, a diff is performed and only the changes
+are drawn to the terminal. See the [Widgets] section of the [Ratatui Website] for more info.
+
+The closure passed to the [`Terminal::draw`] method should handle the rendering of a full frame.
+
+```rust
+use ratatui::{widgets::Paragraph, Frame};
+
+fn run(terminal: &mut ratatui::DefaultTerminal) -> std::io::Result<()> {
+    loop {
+        terminal.draw(|frame| draw(frame))?;
+        if handle_events()? {
+            break Ok(());
+        }
+    }
+}
+
+fn draw(frame: &mut Frame) {
+    let text = Paragraph::new("Hello World!");
+    frame.render_widget(text, frame.area());

-//! [tui-big-text] is a rust crate that renders large pixel text as a [Ratatui] widget using the
-//! glyphs from the [font8x8] crate.
-//!
-//! ![Hello World example](https://vhs.charm.sh/vhs-2UxNc2SJgiNqHoowbsXAMW.gif)
-//!
-//! # Installation
-//!
-//! ```shell
-//! cargo add ratatui tui-big-text
-//! ```
-//!
-//! # Usage
-//!
-//! Create a [`BigText`] widget using `BigTextBuilder` and pass it to [`Frame::render_widget`] to
-//! render be rendered. The builder allows you to customize the [`Style`] of the widget and the
-//! [`PixelSize`] of the glyphs. The [`PixelSize`] can be used to control how many character cells
-//! are used to represent a single pixel of the 8x8 font.
-//!
-//! # Example
-//!
-//! ```rust
-//! use anyhow::Result;
-//! use ratatui::prelude::*;
-//! use tui_big_text::{BigTextBuilder, PixelSize};
-//!
-//! fn render(frame: &mut Frame) -> Result<()> {
-//!     let big_text = BigTextBuilder::default()
-//!         .pixel_size(PixelSize::Full)
-//!         .style(Style::new().blue())
-//!         .lines(vec![
-//!             "Hello".red().into(),
-//!             "World".white().into(),
-//!             "~~~~~".into(),
-//!         ])
-//!         .build()?;
-//!     frame.render_widget(big_text, frame.size());
-//!     Ok(())
-//! }

-//! How to use a panic hook to reset the terminal before printing the panic to
-//! the terminal.
-//!
-//! When exiting normally or when handling `Result::Err`, we can reset the
-//! terminal manually at the end of `main` just before we print the error.
-//!
-//! Because a panic interrupts the normal control flow, manually resetting the
-//! terminal at the end of `main` won't do us any good. Instead, we need to
-//! make sure to set up a panic hook that first resets the terminal before
-//! handling the panic. This both reuses the standard panic hook to ensure a
-//! consistent panic handling UX and properly resets the terminal to not
-//! distort the output.
-//!
-//! That's why this example is set up to show both situations, with and without
-//! the chained panic hook, to see the difference.

-/// A simple example demonstrating how to handle user input. This is a bit out of the scope of
-/// the library as it does not provide any input handling out of the box. However, it may helps
-/// some to get started.
-///
-/// This is a very simple example:
-///   * An input box always focused. Every character you type is registered here.
-///   * An entered character is inserted at the cursor position.
-///   * Pressing Backspace erases the left character before the cursor position
-///   * Pressing Enter pushes the current input in the history of previous messages. **Note: **
-///     as
-///   this is a relatively simple example unicode characters are unsupported and their use will
-/// result in undefined behaviour.
-///
-/// See also https://github.com/rhysd/tui-textarea and https://github.com/sayanarijit/tui-input/

+
+**ratatui-core** is the core library of the [ratatui] project,
+providing the essential building blocks for creating rich terminal user interfaces in Rust.
+
+[ratatui]: https://github.com/ratatui/ratatui
+
+### Why `ratatui-core`?
+
+The `ratatui-core` crate is split from the main [`ratatui`](https://crates.io/crates/ratatui) crate
+to offer better stability for widget library authors. Widget libraries should generally depend
+on `ratatui-core`, benefiting from a stable API and reducing the need for frequent updates.
+
+Applications, on the other hand, should depend on the main `ratatui` crate, which includes
+built-in widgets and additional features.
+
+## Installation
+
+Add `ratatui-core` to your `Cargo.toml`:
+
+```shell
+cargo add ratatui-core
+```
+
+## Contributing
+
+We welcome contributions from the community! Please see our [CONTRIBUTING](../CONTRIBUTING.md)
+guide for more details on how to get involved.

+//! **ratatui-core** is the core library of the [ratatui] project,
+//! providing the essential building blocks for creating rich terminal user interfaces in Rust.
+//!
+//! [ratatui]: https://github.com/ratatui/ratatui
+//!
+//! ## Why `ratatui-core`?
+//!
+//! The `ratatui-core` crate is split from the main [`ratatui`](https://crates.io/crates/ratatui) crate
+//! to offer better stability for widget library authors. Widget libraries should generally depend
+//! on `ratatui-core`, benefiting from a stable API and reducing the need for frequent updates.
+//!
+//! Applications, on the other hand, should depend on the main `ratatui` crate, which includes
+//! built-in widgets and additional features.
+//!
+//! # Installation
+//!
+//! Add `ratatui-core` to your `Cargo.toml`:
+//!
+//! ```shell
+//! cargo add ratatui-core
+//! ```

 //! - A single line string where each grapheme may have its own style is represented by [`Line`].
 //! - A multiple line string where each grapheme may have its own style is represented by a
-//! [`Text`].
+//!   [`Text`].
 //!
-//! These types form a hierarchy: [`Line`] is a collection of [`Span`] and each line of [`Text`]
-//! is a [`Line`].
+//! These types form a hierarchy: [`Line`] is a collection of [`Span`] and each line of [`Text`] is
+//! a [`Line`].
 //!
 //! Keep it mind that a lot of widgets will use those types to advertise what kind of string is
 //! supported for their properties. Moreover, `ratatui` provides convenient `From` implementations
 //! so that you can start by using simple `String` or `&str` and then promote them to the previous
 //! primitives when you need additional styling capabilities.
 //!
-//! For example, for the [`crate::widgets::Block`] widget, all the following calls are valid to set
-//! its `title` property (which is a [`Line`] under the hood):

+/// A `StatefulWidget` is a widget that can take advantage of some local state to remember things
+/// between two draw calls.
+///
+/// Most widgets can be drawn directly based on the input parameters. However, some features may
+/// require some kind of associated state to be implemented.
+///
+/// For example, the `List` widget can highlight the item currently selected. This can be translated
+/// in an offset, which is the number of elements to skip in order to have the selected item within
+/// the viewport currently allocated to this widget. The widget can therefore only provide the
+/// following behavior: whenever the selected item is out of the viewport scroll to a predefined
+/// position (making the selected item the last viewable item or the one in the middle for example).
+/// Nonetheless, if the widget has access to the last computed offset then it can implement a
+/// natural scrolling experience where the last offset is reused until the selected item is out of
+/// the viewport.
+///
+/// ## Examples

+
+/// A `Widget` is a type that can be drawn on a [`Buffer`] in a given [`Rect`].
+///
+/// Prior to Ratatui 0.26.0, widgets generally were created for each frame as they were consumed
+/// during rendering. This meant that they were not meant to be stored but used as *commands* to
+/// draw common figures in the UI.
+///
+/// Starting with Ratatui 0.26.0, all the internal widgets implement Widget for a reference to
+/// themselves. This allows you to store a reference to a widget and render it later. Widget crates
+/// should consider also doing this to allow for more flexibility in how widgets are used.
+///
+/// In Ratatui 0.26.0, we also added an unstable `WidgetRef` trait and implemented this on all the
+/// internal widgets. In addition to the above benefit of rendering references to widgets, this also
+/// allows you to render boxed widgets. This is useful when you want to store a collection of
+/// widgets with different types. You can then iterate over the collection and render each widget.
+/// See <https://github.com/ratatui/ratatui/issues/1287> for more information.
+///
+/// In general where you expect a widget to immutably work on its data, we recommended to implement
+/// `Widget` for a reference to the widget (`impl Widget for &MyWidget`). If you need to store state
+/// between draw calls, implement `StatefulWidget` if you want the Widget to be immutable, or
+/// implement `Widget` for a mutable reference to the widget (`impl Widget for &mut MyWidget`) if
+/// you want the widget to be mutable. The mutable widget pattern is used infrequently in apps, but
+/// can be quite useful.
+///
+/// A blanket implementation of `Widget` for `&W` where `W` implements `WidgetRef` is provided.
+/// Widget is also implemented for `&str` and `String` types.
+///
+/// # Examples
+///
+/// ```rust,ignore
+/// use ratatui::{
+///     backend::TestBackend,
+///     widgets::{Clear, Widget},
+///     Terminal,
+/// };
+/// # let backend = TestBackend::new(5, 5);
+/// # let mut terminal = Terminal::new(backend).unwrap();
+///
+/// terminal.draw(|frame| {
+///     frame.render_widget(Clear, frame.area());
+/// });
+/// ```
+///
+/// It's common to render widgets inside other widgets:
+///
+/// ```rust
+/// use ratatui_core::{buffer::Buffer, layout::Rect, text::Line, widgets::Widget};
+///
+/// struct MyWidget;
+///
+/// impl Widget for MyWidget {
+///     fn render(self, area: Rect, buf: &mut Buffer) {
+///         Line::raw("Hello").render(area, buf);
+///     }

+    where
+        Self: Sized;
+}
+
+/// Renders a string slice as a widget.
+///
+/// This implementation allows a string slice (`&str`) to act as a widget, meaning it can be drawn
+/// onto a [`Buffer`] in a specified [`Rect`]. The slice represents a static string which can be
+/// rendered by reference, thereby avoiding the need for string cloning or ownership transfer when
+/// drawing the text to the screen.
+impl Widget for &str {

+
+/// Renders a `String` object as a widget.
+///
+/// This implementation enables an owned `String` to be treated as a widget, which can be rendered

+/// A [`Backend`] implementation that uses [Crossterm] to render to the terminal.
+///
+/// The `CrosstermBackend` struct is a wrapper around a writer implementing [`Write`], which is
+/// used to send commands to the terminal. It provides methods for drawing content, manipulating
+/// the cursor, and clearing the terminal screen.
+///
+/// Most applications should not call the methods on `CrosstermBackend` directly, but will instead
+/// use the [`Terminal`] struct, which provides a more ergonomic interface.
+///
+/// Usually applications will enable raw mode and switch to alternate screen mode after creating
+/// a `CrosstermBackend`. This is done by calling [`crossterm::terminal::enable_raw_mode`] and
+/// [`crossterm::terminal::EnterAlternateScreen`] (and the corresponding disable/leave functions
+/// when the application exits). This is not done automatically by the backend because it is
+/// possible that the application may want to use the terminal for other purposes (like showing
+/// help text) before entering alternate screen mode.
+///
+/// # Example
+///
+/// ```rust,no_run
+/// use std::io::{stderr, stdout};
+///
+/// use crossterm::{
+///     terminal::{disable_raw_mode, enable_raw_mode, EnterAlternateScreen, LeaveAlternateScreen},
+///     ExecutableCommand,
+/// };
+/// use ratatui::{backend::CrosstermBackend, Terminal};
+///
+/// let mut backend = CrosstermBackend::new(stdout());
+/// // or
+/// let backend = CrosstermBackend::new(stderr());
+/// let mut terminal = Terminal::new(backend)?;
+///
+/// enable_raw_mode()?;
+/// stdout().execute(EnterAlternateScreen)?;
+///
+/// terminal.clear()?;
+/// terminal.draw(|frame| {
+///     // -- snip --
+/// })?;
+///
+/// stdout().execute(LeaveAlternateScreen)?;
+/// disable_raw_mode()?;
+///
