Textual-Color-O-Matic - a widget for color effects, animations, and patterns/tiling

[edward-jazzhands]

Just released 0.2.0 of this library, so I'm feeling pretty ready to showcase it here!

The Color-O-Matic is a widget that makes it easy to make cool color and animation effects. Here's some of the features:

• Can display any color in the truecolor/16-bit spectrum, and can take common formats such as hex code and RGB, or just a huge variety of named colors.
• Can take a list of any number of colors as input and will automatically make a gradient using them all.
• Animation system is easy to use. Just make your gradient and toggle it on/off. It can also be started or stopped in real-time.
• Comes with 3 different animation modes - "gradient", "smooth_strobe", and "fast_strobe".
• Comes with 18 built-in patterns and a pattern constructor argument for easy setting.
• Has a repeat constructor argument for creating your own patterns or tiling any art.
• Animation settings have a variety of variables to modify, including horizontal, reverse, FPS, and quality.
• Fully reactive - update the loaded ASCII art change patterns in real-time. Will resize automatically when width or height is set to auto.
