## What it is
A Go library for prettifying console output with tables, lists, progress bars, and text utilities. It emphasizes customization and supports multiple output formats including ASCII, HTML, Markdown, CSV, and TSV.

## Use cases
- pretty-print tables in a terminal
- render progress bars with ETA in CLI tools
- output tables as markdown or HTML
- format hierarchical lists in console output
- manipulate strings with ANSI colors in Go

## When to avoid
- you need a GUI or web-based table component
- you are not working in Go
- you need full TUI application features beyond output formatting

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: stable
- function: terminal-ui, developer-tools, cli
- domain: developer-tools
- platform: go, cli, cross-platform
- tags: table-writer, progress-bar, ascii-art, text-formatting, console-output, command-line
