Basic Colorization

cprint("Success!", color="green")
cprint("Warning", color="yellow", style="bold")

# Input with colored prompt
name = cinput("Enter your name: ", color="blue")

from tinycolors import color, clib

# Basic colors
print(color.red + "Red text" + color.reset)
print(clib.green + "Green text" + clib.reset)

# Bright colors

# Background colors
print(color.bg.yellow + "Yellow background" + color.reset)
print(color.bg.bright.blue + "Bright blue background" + color.reset)
