Hi there

This is a project that could very well fit as a TTY console without an X server running. Just imagine an instant power-on system that goes from loading the kernel to cool-retro-term! Would be just beautiful, wouldn't it?

But depending on QT doesn't make it easy I guess..

googling for qt framebuffer has some pointers...

i know sdl and gnustep have non-x backends.

I may be wrong but I believe you'd either need something like at least a partial X/Wayland/Display-thing to reproduce the effects, or patching the kernel. Even if I'm wrong, this is a whole project in and on itself, so it seems pretty unlikely to happen in the near future. Though it may be good to leave this open as it could inspire someone to tackle this.

I think this comment could be related. https://github.com/Swordfish90/cool-retro-term/issues/327#issuecomment-326799983
I could not test it, because the original source is not available at the moment, but it seems to load the qml directly without an xserver on a raspberry pi.
