About:
wifitui is a terminal-based user interface for managing WiFi connections on Linux systems. It provides a fast and interactive way to scan for networks, manage connections, and view signal strength without relying on a graphical desktop environment. The tool leverages native system networking utilities to deliver a seamless command-line experience.
Key Features:
  • Interactive terminal UI for network selection
  • Real-time signal strength visualization
  • Support for WPA/WPA2 networks
  • Keyboard-driven navigation
Use Cases:
  • Managing WiFi on headless servers or remote machines
  • Quick network switching on Linux laptops via terminal
  • Troubleshooting wireless connections in minimal environments
Alternatives:
  • nmtui – Part of NetworkManager; more comprehensive but heavier dependency
  • wicd-curses – Older project; similar TUI approach but less actively maintained
