## What it is
A Python library for building beautiful, customizable interactive command-line prompts such as bullet lists, checkboxes, password inputs, and yes/no questions. Prompts are composed like stacking blocks with extensive support for colors, formatting, styles, and emojis.

## Use cases
- build interactive cli prompts in python
- create checkbox or multiple-choice menus in terminal
- prompt for password input in a python cli tool
- add colored styled yes/no questions to a command-line app
- make a scrollable selection list in the terminal
- collect user input in a python command-line utility

## When to choose
- you want highly customizable, styled interactive prompts in a Python CLI
- you need bullet lists, checkboxes, password, number, or yes/no prompts out of the box
- you prefer a simple block-stacking API over heavier TUI frameworks

## When to avoid
- you need full-featured TUI apps with windows, panes, or event loops (use Textual or urwid)
- your project is not in Python
- you need actively developed features beyond the 2.2.0 release

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: maintenance
- function: cli, terminal-ui, form-handling
- domain: developer-tools, cross-platform
- platform: python, cli, windows, cross-platform
- tags: interactive-prompts, cli-prompts, terminal-input, colors, checkboxes, user-input, command-line, linux, macos
