It provides a RichFiglet class that integrates seamlessly into Rich scripts, plus a standalone CLI for shell scripting and quick testing. The library handles terminal width automatically, word-wraps text, and supports color gradients (vertical or horizontal) and built-in animation modes. Borders and padding are calculated correctly to avoid rendering issues at different terminal sizes.\n\nThe package is designed for developers who want to add styled ASCII banners to terminal applications or scripts without managing font rendering and color formatting manually. It depends on pyfiglet for font rendering, rich for terminal output, and rich-click for CLI argument parsing. The fonts are type-hinted for editor auto-completion.","worth_installing":"Yes. Low install friction, active maintenance, no known vulnerabilities, and MIT licensing make it a straightforward choice. Install if you need ASCII art banners in a terminal application or script\u2014the library integrates cleanly with Rich, and the CLI is useful for one-off testing. The 83 days since last release and active status indicate ongoing support."},"id":"rich-pyfiglet","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/rich-pyfiglet","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/rich-pyfiglet.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/rich-pyfiglet/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-05-23","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"rich-pyfiglet","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"A library that wraps PyFiglet with the Rich library for rendering ASCII art in the terminal."},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":157642,"position":10749,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"2.0.1"}
