• Relative widget positioning using a grid layout
• Event system for keyboard, mouse and terminal resizing events
• Colors and styling

)

func main() {
	if err := ui.Init(); err != nil {
		log.Fatalf("failed to initialize termui: %v", err)
	}
	defer ui.Close()

	p := widgets.NewParagraph()
	p.Text = "Hello World!"
	p.SetRect(0, 0, 25, 5)
