Why use this skill instead of standard React documentation?

While Ink uses React patterns, terminal environments have unique constraints like stdout control, focus management, and non-browser input that this skill specifically addresses.

Does it cover async operations in CLI apps?

Absolutely. The skill provides robust patterns for async state management, including handling loading states, error boundaries, and cleanup to prevent memory leaks in the terminal.

How does this skill help with Ink development?

It provides expert implementation patterns for React hooks specifically tailored for the Ink framework, helping you manage state, handle user input, and control terminal behavior efficiently.

Can it help with keyboard input in the terminal?

Yes, it includes detailed patterns for using the useInput hook to handle arrow keys, escape sequences, and standard character input for interactive command-line menus.
