How to replace dialog in Linux console?

Hi all!
I am using dialog to create interactive menus.
So far I've found that dialog doesn't provide what I need. In particular, in order to display the progress of a certain script, I have to run a bash script in the background that displays the progress bar.
The problem is that it is not possible to change the dialogue. For example, I need a progress bar with the ability to display the status (as in the installer) through the button - Details.
Tell me what are the analogues?
Ideally, I want to take it to a whole new level and implement a graphical interface (like the one in the CentOs installer).

If Go is not scary, then you can look at this link https://github.com/jroimartin/gocui , there is a progress bar there :)
