Console colours are just some you append to the end of your text, you don't need a special library for it https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5762491/how-to-print-color-in-console-using-system-out-println#5762502

but to get terminal size aware programs done is really hard in java.. so zircon or lanterna as a base are nice, they handle the necessary ugly native stuff
