[PackageCompatUI](https://github.com/GunnarFarneback/PackageCompatUI.jl) is a terminal text interface to the `[compat]` section of a Julia `Project.toml` file. You can find more about how it works in the [original announcement](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/ann-packagecompatui/58118).

The new version 1.1 does not change much about it, except that now it can be installed as a Pkg App!

In Julia 1.12 or later, enter the package manager REPL mode with `]` and install the app with

```julia-auto
pkg> app add PackageCompatUI

```

and make sure you have `~/.julia/bin` in your `PATH`.

Then you can change directory to your package and run `compat_ui` from the command line. This brings you straight into the text interface.
