[](#features)

1. Production ready,
2. Easy to use,
3. No additional dependencies,

Usage examples
--------------

[](#usage-examples)

**NOTE:** For proper rendering in environments like web browsers, ensure you are using a monospace font or wrap the output in `` tags.

```
$table = new TextTable(['ID', 'NAME', 'SCORE']);
$table->addRows([
    [1, 'John', 12],
    [2, 'Tommy', 15],
]);
echo $table->renderAsString();
```

would produce nice text table:

```
┌────┬───────┬───────┐
│ ID │ NAME  │ SCORE │
├────┼───────┼───────┤
│ 1  │ John  │ 12    │
│ 2  │ Tommy │ 15    │
└────┴───────┴───────┘
```
