## What it is
A small C# library for printing nicely formatted ASCII tables to the console from structured data or POCOs. It supports multiple table formats (Default, Alternative, Minimal) and is distributed via NuGet.

## Use cases
- print a formatted table in a C# console app
- output a list of POCOs as a table in the terminal
- format CLI tool output as columns
- render tabular data in .NET console application
- display query results in console with aligned columns

## When to choose
- you need quick, dependency-free tabular console output in .NET
- you want multiple table styles with minimal configuration
- you want to dump collections of objects to the console for debugging or CLI output

## When to avoid
- you need rich TUI features like colors, scrolling, or interactive widgets
- you are not on a .NET/C# platform
- you need to export tables to files or formats like CSV/HTML rather than console output

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: stable
- function: cli, developer-tools, terminal-ui
- domain: developer-tools
- platform: dotnet, cross-platform, cli
- tags: console-output, table-formatting, csharp, nuget, poco, command-line
