PTerm is a Go library for beautifying terminal output with components like progress bars, spinners, tables, trees, charts, and interactive prompts. It is fully configurable, cross-platform, and designed to make Go CLI applications more user-friendly.

Use cases

  • add progress bars and spinners to a go cli
  • print pretty tables and trees in the terminal
  • build interactive select menus and text input prompts in go
  • colorize and style console output in a go application
  • create beautiful command-line tools in golang

When to choose

  • you are writing a Go CLI and want polished, colorful terminal output
  • you need interactive prompts, menus, or progress indicators in a terminal app
  • you want a cross-platform terminal UI library with extensive examples

When to avoid

  • you need a full-screen TUI framework with layout and event loops rather than print components
  • your project is not written in Go
