+this plugin is pretty simple, it just allows you to set up a render texture to be extracted for use on the CPU every frame
+
+i made this plugin as part of the [white (I)](@/projects/white_I/index.md) project super early on when i needed a copy of the rendered frame in the main world to be rendered as braille to the screen

+
+this plugin allows you to render from a camera to the terminal using [unicode braille characters](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Braille_Patterns)

+
+it makes use of the [bevy_headless_render](@/projects/bevy_headless_render/index.md) plugin for headless rendering, and then uses the [bevy_dither_post_process](@/projects/bevy_dither_post_process/index.md) plugin to dither the captured frame before converting the black and white pixels into the appropriate characters and printing them to the terminal
+
+this plugin uses the [ratatui](https://crates.io/crates/ratatui) and [crossterm](https://crates.io/crates/crossterm) for rendering to the terminal
+
+this plugin manages a `TerminalInput` resource which keeps track of pressed keys
+
+this plugin also has facilities for creating and rendering ratatui widgets
+
+here's an example of a dialog box and option selection widget i've implemented in my [white (I)](@/projects/white_I/index.md) project
+
+![dialog widget](dialog.png)
+
+in that project, i also make use of the [bevy_outline_post_process](@/projects/bevy_outline_post_process/index.md) for additional visual contrast
