+A c++20 library for working with raw mode in a terminal, used for building
+custom TUI applications without the old-school overhead of ncurses.
+Documentation is mostly provided in the `docs/` directory, where every header
+file has a partner mardown file to describe it's methods usecases.
 
 ### How to use
 As of `v4.0.0`, rawterm can be imported with cmake fetchcontent. Add the

+#### Example
+A minimal hello world example looks like this:

+```cpp
