Get answers in an object

When asking many questions, you might not want to keep one variable per answer everywhere. In which case, you can put the answer inside an object.

const answers = {
  firstName: await term.input("What's your first name?"),
  allowEmail: await term.input('Do you allow us to send you email?'),
};

console.log(answers.firstName);

Ask a question conditionally

Maybe some questions depend on some other question's answer.

const allowEmail = await term.input("Can I have your email, if so say 'yes'")

let email;
if (allowEmail === 'yes') {
  email = await term.input('What is your email address');
}
