It decouples styling markup from color palettes and terminal implementations, letting you write color codes once and swap renderers or palettes without changing your code. It supports 3/4bit, 8bit, and 24bit (RGB) colors, effects like bold and italic, and allows you to mute all styles globally. The library is fully typed, does not modify globals like some alternatives do, and provides high-performance access to styling rules.\n\nYou apply styles by concatenating string constants (fg.red, bg.blue, ef.bold) with your text, then reset with reset codes (fg.rs, bg.rs, rs.italic). You can also create custom color registers by subclassing the built-in register classes, or use the Register class directly to define your own styling rules.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you need simple, zero-dependency terminal styling. Sty is lightweight, well-typed, and avoids global modifications that cause compatibility issues. The dormant maintenance status is not a blocker for stable use\u2014the library is feature-complete and has no known vulnerabilities\u2014but monitor the repository if you rely on it for new Python versions beyond 3.12."},"id":"sty","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/sty","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/sty.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/sty/"},"maintenance":{"status":"dormant"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2023-11-27","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"sty","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"String styling for your terminal"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":243995,"position":8767,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.0.6"}
