A scenic CLI package that sends you on a road trip down Norway's **Road 53** — right in your terminal! ✨
## Features
- 🌄 **Layered Norwegian scene** — sun, clouds, jagged snowy peaks, a car on the road, and a fjord below
- 🅡🅞🅐🅓 **ANSI-Shadow `ROAD 53` banner** — bold figlet block letters framed in a double-line box
- 🌅 **Five distinct gradient zones** — warm sunrise sky, cool alpine mountains, sunset banner, silver road, and deep-fjord blues
- 🚗 **Road trip borders** — scenic icons framing every print
- ✦ **70 short reflections from the road** — a different aphorism every run
- Quiet observations on fjords, weather, and slow travel
- Norway-specific notes (friluftsliv, midnight sun, ferries, switchbacks)
- Written to read more like an epigraph than a slogan
## Installation
```bash
npm install -g roadtrips
```
## Usage
Simply run:
```bash
roadtrips
```
Or use with npx without installing:
```bash
npx roadtrips
```
## Example Output
Each run displays a short reflection from the road, such as:
- *"Tunnels feel like punctuation between paragraphs of light."*
- *"On Road 53, slow is its own kind of arrival."*
- *"Distance, in Norway, is measured in weather, not kilometers."*
- *"A switchback is a sentence with a comma where you didn't expect one."*
- *"The fjord doesn't perform; it persists."*
