Tutorial

Six short chapters that build from a single styled line to a live progress display and the command-line tool.

Every code block is real, compiled code — the examples are checked against the library, and the images are rendered by it.

• 1. Your first output — the Console, and why it behaves differently when piped.
• 2. Markup and style — tags, themes, and automatic highlighting.
• 3. Tables — columns, justification, wrapping and overflow.
• 4. Layout — panels, trees, columns, rules, alignment.
• 5. Progress and live output — bars, spinners, refreshing in place.
• 6. The CLI — rendering files, and exporting HTML/SVG.
