Why is there this trent of vibe coded TUIs?

Some people like to show off.

Thought it would be fun to make one.

Does it reuse tshark/libwireshark dissectors, or is this a from-scratch parser? The former is the only version I'd trust on a live capture.

It uses an eBPF engine I found

Does it really works like this ? I mean it displays like that directly in the shell ?

It does. Pretty nifty.
