  Color package for Go (golang)

So i have a cli tool thats outputting some text to the cli stdout, i would like the output to be colored, so i used a library called color (github.com/fatih/color), basically the problem is when i output to stdout its fine but when i do something like ./tool | tee -a file.txt the colors disappear from terminal and also not in the output file, why is that and how do i prevent that ?
