requirements: install colorama on all platforms #298
Conversation

Looking at colorama itself; it hasn’t had a release since 2022 and the maintenance is very low. Do we still want this requirement? @kbdharun |

I want to get the other PR fixed and done. We can change the library later in a later PR |

Just checked the Colorama repo, it's still being actively maintained and works for recent Python versions (and is supported by Tidelift, who sponsors these FOSS projects in exchange for professional support) since it's a generic library and there isn't any major changes there doesn't seem to be new releases since 2022, but it should work as intended for the near future.
I don't think we would need to look for an immediate alternative now, but if stops functioning or has security/dependency issues we can replace it in the future, for now the current PRs changes LGTM (Pyproject file needs to be updates too, will do it in main PR).
I assume this change installs colorama on all platforms to get rid of a CI error.
