Tekstipõhiseid

Tekstipõhiseid, a term often encountered in Estonian, translates to "text-based" in English. This descriptor refers to systems, applications, or interactions that primarily utilize written language as their medium of communication or operation. In computing, text-based interfaces, also known as command-line interfaces (CLIs), are a classic example. Users interact with these systems by typing commands and receiving textual output. This contrasts with graphical user interfaces (GUIs), which rely on visual elements like icons and windows.

Beyond computing, "tekstipõhiseid" can describe various forms of content or activities. For instance, a tekstipõhine game is a video game where the narrative and gameplay are conveyed through written descriptions and player input via text. Similarly, tekstipõhine learning materials would involve textbooks, articles, or online documents that present information solely through written text, without accompanying images, videos, or audio. The concept emphasizes the reliance on the written word for conveying information, instructions, or narrative. It highlights a fundamental mode of human communication and information processing that predates more complex media.
