Blessed is a curses-like library for creating terminal-based user interfaces in Node.js. It provides a high-level API for building interactive and visually appealing command-line applications with features like windows, buttons, forms, and text elements. Blessed simplifies the process of creating terminal UIs by handling low-level terminal rendering and input events, allowing developers to focus on building the application logic.

Compared to other terminal UI libraries like ncurses or urwid, Blessed offers a more modern and JavaScript-friendly approach, making it easier for Node.js developers to create rich terminal applications. Blessed is actively maintained and widely used in the Node.js community for building CLI tools and applications.
