It prints ANSI colored output. That is all.

This is a very minimal implementation for generating ANSI escape sequences in Rust.

• Basic Colors: The standard 8 colors and their slightly-more-exciting "bright" variants.
• A Color Enum:.
• A Style Struct:. Only foreground color now
• A StyledText Wrapper: wrapping your text inside glorious colors.

Let's be honest, there are tons of other crates out there that do terminal coloring, and they are generally more robust, feature-rich, and easier to use than this. Crates like yansi, ansi_term, and termcolor.

• You have a fear of adding external dependencies, even tiny ones (like me).

• You need robust, cross-platform terminal coloring.
• You want support for 256 colors, truecolor, or any other fancy features.
• You prefer well-tested, feature-complete libraries.

This code is provided as open source, for anyone who might find it useful or educational. However, please note that we are not seeking contributions or feature requests. It exists primarily as a simple example of direct ANSI escape sequence generation. Feel free to use, modify, or learn from it in your own projects!
