## What it is
A Node.js library that logs animated progress bars and time estimates for Promises in the terminal. It stores previous run durations to make estimates more accurate over time.

## Use cases
- show a progress bar while awaiting promises in a CLI
- estimate how long async tasks will take
- display spinners with time estimates in terminal scripts
- track historical durations of CLI tasks
- add loading indicators to Node.js command-line tools

## When to choose
- you need progress bars with learned duration estimates for Promises in a Node.js CLI
- you want persistent duration history across runs for better estimates

## When to avoid
- you need progress bars for non-Promise workloads like streams or file downloads
- you need a full-featured CLI framework or task runner
- you need a library with active development or a guaranteed license file
