    About the ascii art text

    Renders text as an ASCII art banner in fourteen figlet fonts, from the classic Standard to Slant, Shadow, Doom and Block. Fonts load individually on demand, and the wrap width keeps long text inside a terminal.

    Frequently asked questions

    Where are ASCII banners actually used?

    CLI tool startup screens, README headers, server message-of-the-day files and build output. They give a terminal application a recognisable identity at no runtime cost.

    Do screen readers handle this well?

    No — a banner is read out character by character, which is unusable. Always put a plain-text heading nearby, and mark the art decorative where the format allows it.
