pterm
✨ PTerm is a modern Go module to easily beautify console output. Featuring charts, progressbars, tables, trees, text input, select menus and much more 🚀 It's completely configurable and 100% cross-platform compatible.
Git is a titan. As I mentioned earlier, I never intended to replace it, but I wanted to create a VCS that stands out in its own way. I have many ambitious plans to introduce unique features, but the first step was enhancing the user experience by developing an elegant UI. To achieve this, I used pterm, a Go library for building visually appealing terminal interfaces. The UI is structured with reusable components, making it both modular and maintainable.

I went looking for a 'new' pager a couple years back and settled on this [0]. I've since gone back to `less` since it got annoying jumping between systems and having different pagers, but when I used it it was quite nice.
