It looks like using picocolors is better than chalk.
I think it is common to use the chalk library to add color to the text output to the console.It is also large and dependent on other libraries.By using a library called picocolors, we can expect to improve the size and speed of the package.The usability is almost the same, so it will be available as usual.
