colored
A simple Rust library for coloring terminal output with an intuitive API and support for true colors.
What is colored?
Colored is a Rust library that provides an easy and intuitive way to add colors and styles to terminal output. It solves the problem of verbose or complex terminal text formatting by offering a fluent API that allows method chaining directly on strings, while respecting environment variables like NO_COLOR and CLICOLOR for cross-platform compatibility.
Rust developers building command-line applications, tools, or scripts that require enhanced terminal output with colors and styles, especially those prioritizing ease of use and cross-platform support.
Developers choose Colored for its intuitive fluent API that makes coloring as simple as calling .blue() or .bold() on strings, its robust support for true colors and environment variable awareness, and its minimal dependencies with compile-time control via feature flags.
