FYI: Recently, I've been using it more frequently, not just during Clive's development routine. Although it doesn't have all the cli_wallet features yet, each new release brings it closer.
Even with a basic 80x24 TUI, it is still good enough and usable:
However, with the capabilities of modern terminals, it can perform much better and show its full potential. Here's an example at 132x43:
You might find it useful to map Clive's datadir to a directory on your host machine:
docker run -ti -v ~/.clive:/root/.clive hiveio/clive:v1.27.5.14
This will preserve your configuration and profile. However, please note that you shouldn't rely on this storage permanently, as the format may change in future releases, potentially requiring you to re-import keys.
