AI BriefingCLUI: Building a Graphical Command Line
Key point
It proposes the graphical command line (CLUI) as a new interface to solve the complexity of GUIs and the high entry barrier of CLIs.
Details
CLI (Command Line Interface) is predictable and powerful, but it has limitations such as a high learning curve and a text-centric interface. On the other hand, GUI (Graphical User Interface) is intuitive and easy to learn, but as features increase, it takes up screen space and complexity rises sharply.
As features increase, GUIs end up hiding functions inside menus and dropdowns, which makes it difficult for users to find the feature they want. A representative example is professional tools like Adobe Premiere becoming excessively complex.
This phenomenon of 'GUI bloat' ultimately leads users to find features through search instead of digging through menus. The need for CLUI (Graphical Command Line), which turns search from a mere auxiliary means into the core way of interacting with a tool, is emerging.
