## Features
* Written with unit testing in mind.
* Supports tables, grids, panels, and a [rich](https://github.com/willmcgugan/rich) inspired markup language.
* Supports the most common SRG parameters when it comes to text
styling such as bold, dim, italic, underline, strikethrough,
and blinking text.
* Supports 3/4/8/24-bit colors in the terminal.
The library will detect the capabilities of the current terminal
and downgrade colors as needed.
