cross-platform-terminal-characters is a utility library that provides consistent, cross-platform terminal characters such as checkmarks, arrows, and box-drawing symbols for use in command-line interfaces. It ensures that terminal UI components look correct and legible across operating systems like Windows, macOS, and Linux, accounting for encoding and font inconsistencies. By automatically selecting fallback characters when necessary, it simplifies the process of designing beautiful, portable CLI tools.

Features

  • Provides a set of styled terminal characters for CLI apps
  • Cross-platform compatibility with fallback handling
  • Includes checkmarks, arrows, bullets, and lines
  • Automatically switches to ASCII alternatives on Windows
  • Unicode-safe character set for modern terminals
  • Ideal for building polished command-line interfaces
