What's Good
The Console class handles everything: print replacement, styling, layouts. Progress bars work for downloads, processing, and iteration. Tracebacks are gorgeous and more readable.
The Catch
Terminal compatibility varies—some environments render poorly. The feature set is large; learning the full API takes time.
Verdict
The easiest way to make terminals beautiful.
