It provides three main modules: pansi.text for text coloring and styling (with functions designed to align with CSS properties), pansi.image for rendering images in the terminal, and pansi.screen for full-screen layout handling. The library depends on pillow for image processing.\n\nThe package is positioned as a stable, production-ready tool for developers building terminal user interfaces or command-line applications that need formatted text and graphics. It supports a wide range of Python versions from 3.6 onward and is OS-independent, though terminal feature support varies\u2014not every function works in every terminal emulator, so you should verify compatibility with your target terminal software.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you need terminal text styling and graphics rendering in a stable, low-friction package. The Apache-2.0 license is permissive and the install is straightforward. However, note that the project is dormant (no releases in 649 days), so do not expect active maintenance, bug fixes, or updates\u2014suitable for stable use cases but risky if you encounter bugs or need new features."},"id":"pansi","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/pansi","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/pansi.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/pansi/"},"maintenance":{"status":"dormant"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2024-11-03","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"pansi","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Text mode rendering library"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":97355,"position":13154,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"2024.11.0"}
