opamui

opamui is a terminal user interface for browsing and searching OCaml opam packages. It launches a full-screen TUI listing packages from the configured opam switch and lets you filter by name, see which packages are installed, and inspect package metadata such as version, synopsis, dependencies, and homepage.It does not install or modify packages — it is purely a read-only browser that wraps opam's package listing and inspection commands.

Requires opam to be installed and an opam switch to be initialized (opam init). The set of packages shown reflects the currently active switch; run opam switch to see another set.

opamui was created by Nicolas Lamirault (nlamirault) and is written in OCaml. It targets developers who want to explore the opam ecosystem without leaving the terminal.
