What is inquirer?
Inquirer is a Node.js package that provides interactive command-line prompts for collecting user input, such as text answers, confirmations, multiple-choice selections, and other common CLI interactions. Developers use it to build user-friendly command-line tools, generators, and scaffolding utilities that need to ask questions and gather responses from users in the terminal. It handles the complexity of terminal I/O so developers can focus on their application logic rather than implementing prompts from scratch.
