Spectre.Console is a .NET library that enables the creation of rich, cross‑platform console applications. Heavily inspired by Python’s Rich library, it provides advanced styling, layout, and input capabilities for modern terminal UIs. Supports tables, grids, panels, and a 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. Written with unit testing in mind.
