# Cursive Examples
Here are example programs using Cursive to help you getting familiar with the
various aspects of the library.
To run an example, use `cargo run --example EXAMPLE_NAME`.
## [`hello_world`](hello_world.rs)
Simplest example possible, it will show you the starting point of a basic
Cursive application.
## [`dialog`](dialog.rs)
This example wraps the text in a `Dialog` view, showing the basic idea of view
composition.
## [`lorem`](lorem.rs)
This example loads a large text file to show scrolling behaviour. It also
includes greek and japanese characters to show non-ascii support.
## [`edit`](edit.rs)
Here we have an `EditView` to get input from the user, and use that input in
the next view. It shows how to identify a view with an name and refer to it
later.
## [`mutation`](mutation.rs)
This example modifies the content of an existing view.
## [`linear`](linear.rs)
This example uses a `LinearView` to put multiple views side-by-side.
## [`menubar`](menubar.rs)
Here we learn how to create a menubar at the top of the screen, and populate
it with static and dynamic entried.
## [`logs`](logs.rs)
This example defines a custom view to display asynchronous input from a
channel.
## [`key_codes`](key_codes.rs)
This example uses a custom view to print any input received. Can be used as a
debugging tool to see what input the application is receiving.
## [`select`](select.rs)
This example uses a `SelectView` to have the user pick a city from a long list.

This example shows the effect of the `Color::TerminalDefault` setting.
## [`colors`](colors.rs)
This example draws a colorful square to show off true color support.
## [`refcell_view`](refcell_view.rs)
Here we show how to access multiple views concurently through their name.
## [`progress`](progress.rs)

## [`radio`](radio.rs)
This shows how to use `RadioGroup` and `RadioButton`.
