What it is AI-extracted, prompt v1, taxonomy v1, 2026-08-29, confidence not recorded

A Go library for building interactive and accessible terminal prompts (input, select, multi-select, confirm, etc.) with support for Windows and POSIX terminals. The project is no longer maintained, with Bubble Tea suggested as an alternative.

Use cases

  • build interactive cli prompts in go
  • ask users questions from a command line tool
  • create select menus and confirmations in a terminal app
  • collect validated user input into a struct
  • build cross-platform interactive command line wizards

When to choose

  • you need a simple, well-documented prompt library for a Go CLI
  • you must support both Windows and POSIX terminals
  • you want struct-tag based answer binding with type conversion

When to avoid

  • you need an actively maintained library - it is abandoned
  • you want rich TUI layouts beyond simple prompts - consider Bubble Tea
  • you are starting a new Go project needing long-term support
