Rainbow
A Swift library for adding color, background color, and text styles to console and command line output.
What is Rainbow?
Rainbow is a Swift library that adds text color, background color, and styles (like bold or underline) to console and command line output. It solves the problem of creating visually distinct and readable logs or CLI interfaces in terminal applications, supporting cross-platform use on macOS, Linux, and Windows.
Swift developers building command-line tools, cross-platform applications, or any software that outputs logs or information to the terminal and wants to enhance readability with colors and styles.
Developers choose Rainbow for its intuitive API (e.g., `"text".red`), extensive color support (including ANSI 256, true color, Hex, and HSL), cross-platform compatibility, and smart output detection that automatically disables colors when piping to files.
