Their bubbletea and charms libraries are two of the most amazing go libraries for creating cli apps I have had the pleasure of using.

This is the function they are using to detect the background color:

(There’s a different version of it for Windows.)

The windows one just returns default black, which is correct in most cases since very few change it to something else.

This is not entirely true: Windows Powershell defaulted to a blue background. Though this is admittedly an edge case, as Windows Powershell is now deprecated in favour of Powershell Core (which has a black background) IIRC.

GNU libtextstyle, part of gettext, includes CSS styling for ANSI terminal emulator text output.

For some values of "CSS" and "ANSI".

I will dig into a bit when I return to office computer...
