        time.sleep(0.2)
        b.update()

🛠 Requirements

• Python 3.8+

❓ Why brewbar?

Because sometimes you don't want:

• ❌ giant APIs
• ❌ heavy deps
• ❌ walls of logs

You just want to know when your code is done…
and have a beer while waiting. 🍻

Example with timing options

from brewbar import bar
import time

for _ in bar(
    range(200),
    eta=True,
    elapsed=True,
    rate=True,
    ascii=True,
):
    time.sleep(0.05)
